Recombinant Human Guanylate Cyclase Activator 2B (Uroguanylin)

• Cat.No.: GUCA2B-127H
• Product Overview: Recombinant Human Prouroguanylin produced inE.coliis 10 kDa protein containing 88 amino acid residues of the human prouroguanylin and 2 additional amino acid residues. Three-step procedure using IMAC and size exclusion chromatography before and after refolding.

Specification

• Cat. No.: GUCA2B-127H
• Description: Prouroguanylin is a 112-amino-acid prohormone precursor of uroguanylin-mature biologically active 16-amino-acid peptide cleaved from its C-terminus. Guanylin binds to receptor-guanylate cyclases (CG-C) resulting in increased intracellular cGMP levels leading to CFTCR (Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator) activation and subsequent rise in fluid and electrolyte secretion into the lumen. Prouroguanyline knock-out mice showed impaired renal excretion of external NaCl leading to elevated blood pressure independent of the level of diatary salt intake. Prouroguanylin is the predominant circulating molecular form found in circulation and in biological fluids.
• Source: Escherichia Coli.
• Physical Appearance: Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
• Form: Sterile filtered and lyophilized from 0.5 mg/ml in 50mM Phosphate buffer pH-7.4.
• Purity: Greater than 95.0% as determined by: (a) Analysis by RP-HPLC. (b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE.
• Specificity: The recombinant sequence is 100% homologous to the native human sequence.
• Applications: Western blotting, ELISA.
• Solubility: Add 0.2 ml of deionized H2O and let the lyophilized pellet dissolve completely.
