Renin-2 Protein, Mouse, Recombinant (His)

Renin is a highly specific endopeptidase, related to pepsin, whose only known function is to generate angiotensin I from angiotensinogen in the plasma, initiating a cascade of reactions that produce an elevation of blood pressure and increased sodium retention by the kidney. Its function in the salivary gland is not understood. Renin-2 Protein, Mouse, Recombinant (His) is expressed in E. coli expression system with N-6xHis tag. The predicted molecular weight is 35.0 kDa and the accession number is P00796.
