Recombinant Human CALCA (C-6His)

Description

EnkiLife provides the Recombinant Human CALCA (C-6His) protein,aslo know as Calcitonin,Katacalcin,Calcitonin Carboxyl-Terminal Peptide,CCP,PDN-21,CALCA,CALC1, which features high purity, high activity, and high stability. It can be applied in scientific research, biopharmaceuticals, and other fields.Purity:Greater than 95% as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE;Endotoxin Level:<1 EU/µg as determined by LAL test.;Construction:Recombinant Human Calcitonin is produced by our E.coli expression system and the target gene encoding Tyr58-Asn141 is expressed with a 6His tag at the C-terminus.Accession:P01258. Expression Host:E.coli.Species:Human.Predicted Molecular Mass:10.5 KDa. Background:Calcitonin is a secreted protein which belongs to the calcitonin family. Calcitonin is cleaved into the following two chains: Calcitonin and Katacalcin. Katacalcin is a potent plasma calcium-lowering peptide. Calcitonin is a 32-amino acid linear polypeptide hormone. Calcitonin acts to reduce blood calcium (Ca2+), opposing the effects of parathyroid hormone (PTH). Its importance in humans has not been as well established as its importance in other animals, as its function is usually not significant in the regulation of normal calcium homeostasis. Calcitonin causes a rapid but short-lived drop in the level of calcium and phosphate in blood by promoting the incorporation of those ions in the bones.
