Calcitonin/CT protein (His tag), recombinant rat

Activity: Testing in progress Protein Construction: A DNA sequence encoding the Rat CT protein (P01257) (Met1-Asn136) was expressed with a C-His. Sequence: Met1-Asn136. Fusion tag: C-His Endotoxin: Please contact us for more information. Apparent Molecular Mass: 20 kDa. Protein function: 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 polypepti Protein function: 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.
