Recombinant Human CALCA Protein, GST-Tagged

• Cat.No.: CALCA-0289H
• Product Overview: Human CALCA full-length ORF (NP_001732.1, 1 a.a. - 141 a.a.) recombinant protein with GST-tag at N-terminal.

Specification

• Description: This gene encodes the peptide hormones calcitonin, calcitonin gene-related peptide and katacalcin by tissue-specific alternative RNA splicing of the gene transcripts and cleavage of inactive precursor proteins. Calcitonin is involved in calcium regulation and acts to regulate phosphorus metabolism. Calcitonin gene-related peptide functions as a vasodilator and as an antimicrobial peptide while katacalcin is a calcium-lowering peptide. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Aug 2014]
