Renin Human Recombinant produced in HEK cells is a single, glycosylated, polypeptide chain (Leu24-Arg406) containing a total of 393 amino acids, having a calculated molecular mass of 43.7kDa and fused to a 10 aa His tag at C-Terminus.
Renin is a highly specific endopeptidase which generates angiotensin I from angiotensinogen in the plasma. angiotensin I is an important regulator of blood pressure and electrolyte balance. Renin initiates a cascade of reactions that produce an elevation of blood pressure and increased sodium retention by the kidney.
It is recommended to add 200µl deionized water to prepare a working stock solution of approximately 0.5 mg/ml and let the lyophilized pellet dissolve completely. REN is not sterile! Please filter the product by an appropriate sterile filter before using it in the cell culture.
