Human RAMP1 Protein, mFc Tag

Description :Recombinant human RAMP1 Protein with C-terminal mouse Fc tagBackground : The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the RAMP family of single-transmembrane-domain proteins, called receptor (calcitonin) activity modifying proteins (RAMPs) . RAMPs are type I transmembrane proteins with an extracellular N terminus and a cytoplasmic C terminus. RAMPs are required to transport calcitonin-receptor-like receptor (CRLR) to the plasma membrane. CRLR, a receptor with seven transmembrane domains, can function as either a calcitonin-gene-related peptide (CGRP) receptor or an adrenomedullin receptor, depending on which members of the RAMP family are expressed. In the presence of this (RAMP1) protein, CRLR functions as a CGRP receptor. The RAMP1 protein is involved in the terminal glycosylation, maturation, and presentation of the CGRP receptor to the cell surface. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. Molecular Characterization: mass of 36.7 kDa after removal of the signal peptide. The apparent molecular mass of RAMP1-mFc is approximately 35-55 kDa due to glycosylation.Tag :C-mouse Fc tag
