Human CALCA (26-141) Protein, hFc Tag

Description :Recombinant Human CALCA (26-141) Protein with C-terminal human Fc tag Background : 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. Molecular Characterization: mass of 38.9 kDa after removal of the signal peptide. The apparent molecular mass of CALCA (26-141) -hFc is approximately 35-55 kDa due to glycosylation. Tag :C-Human Fc Tag
