Recombinant Human Angiogenin, Ribonuclease, RNase A Family, 5

• Cat.No.: ANG-2629H
• Product Overview: Recombinant human angiogenin is expressed inE. coli.Exhibits angiogenic and ribonucleolytic activities. Enhances the ability of endothelial cells to digest extracellular matrix components and degrade basement membrane. Has been shown to stimulate capillary and umbilical vein endothelial cells to produce DAG and secrete prostacyclin by phospholipase activation.

Specification

• Cat. No.: ANG-2629H
• Description: Angiogenin (Ang) is a small polypeptide that is implicated in angiogenesis (formation of new blood vessels) in tumor growth. However, angiogenin is unique among the many proteins that are involved in angiogenesis in that it is also an enzyme with an amino acid sequence 33% identical to that of bovine pancreatic ribonuclease (RNase) A. Moreover, although Ang has the same general catalytic properties as RNase A – it cleaves preferentially on the 3" side of pyrimidines and follows a transphosphorylation/hydrolysis mechanism – its activity differs markedly both in magnitude and in specificity.
