Calcitonin/CALCA Protein, Human (GST)

Cat. No.: HY-P71702
Handling Instructions

Calcitonin/CALCA protein acts as a vasodilator, dilating different blood vessels, including coronary, cerebral, and systemic vessels. Its presence in the central nervous system suggests its potential role as a neurotransmitter or neuromodulator. Calcitonin/CALCA Protein, Human (GST) is the recombinant human-derived Calcitonin/CALCA protein, expressed by E. coli , with N-GST labeled tag. The total length of Calcitonin/CALCA Protein, Human (GST) is 36 a.a., with molecular weight of ~30.6 kDa.

Description

Calcitonin/CALCA protein acts as a vasodilator, dilating different blood vessels, including coronary, cerebral, and systemic vessels. Its presence in the central nervous system suggests its potential role as a neurotransmitter or neuromodulator. Calcitonin/CALCA Protein, Human (GST) is the recombinant human-derived Calcitonin/CALCA protein, expressed by E. coli , with N-GST labeled tag. The total length of Calcitonin/CALCA Protein, Human (GST) is 36 a.a., with molecular weight of ~30.6 kDa.

Background

Calcitonin/CALCA protein, known for its role as a vasodilator, induces dilation in various vessels, including those in the coronary, cerebral, and systemic vasculature. Its presence in the central nervous system suggests potential functions as a neurotransmitter or neuromodulator. Additionally, Calcitonin/CALCA contributes to the elevation of platelet cAMP, indicating its involvement in regulating intracellular signaling pathways. The multifaceted actions of Calcitonin/CALCA underscore its significance in vascular regulation and neurotransmission within the central nervous system.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.

The reconstitution calculator equation

Volume (to add to vial) = Mass (in vial) ÷ Desired Reconstitution Concentration

Volume (to add to vial) = Mass (in vial) ÷ Desired Reconstitution Concentration
= ÷

The dilution calculator equation

Concentration (start) × Volume (start) = Concentration (final) × Volume (final)

This equation is commonly abbreviated as: C1V1 = C2V2

Concentration (start) × Volume (start) = Concentration (final) × Volume (final)
× = ×

The specific activity calculator equation

Specific Activity (Unit/mg) = 106 ÷ Biological Activity (ED50)

Specific Activity (Unit/mg) = 106 ÷ Biological Activity (ED50)
Unit/mg = 106 ÷ ng/mL
