Recombinant Human Troponin T Type 2 (Cardiac)

• Cat.No.: TNNT2-221H
• Product Overview: Recombinant Human TnT produced inE.Coliis a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain. The TnT protein has a molecular mass of 40kDa. The TnT is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.

Specification

• Cat. No.: TNNT2-221H
• Description: A protein which in humans is encoded by the TNNT2 gene. The protein encoded by this gene is the tropomyosin-binding subunit of the troponin complex, which is located on the thin filament of striated muscles and regulates muscle contraction in response to alterations in intracellular calcium ion concentration. Mutations in this gene have been associated with familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy as well as with restrictiveand dilated cardiomyopathy. Transcripts for this gene undergo alternative splicing that results in many tissue-specific isoforms, however, the full-length nature of some of these variants has not yet been determined. Mutations of this gene may be associated with mild or absent hypertrophy and predominant restrictive disease, with a high risk of sudden cardiac death. Advancement to dilated cardiomyopathy may be more rapid in patients with TNNT2 mutations than in those with myosin heavy chain mutations.
