Calcitonin/CALCA Protein, Mouse (HEK293, Fc)

The Calcitonin/CALCA protein induces vasodilation in different blood vessels, including the coronary, cerebral, and systemic vasculature. It is highly concentrated in the central nervous system, suggesting a role as a neurotransmitter or neuromodulator. Moreover, it increases platelet cAMP levels, possibly affecting platelet function. Calcitonin/CALCA Protein, Mouse (HEK293, Fc) is the recombinant mouse-derived Calcitonin/CALCA protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-hFc labeled tag. The total length of Calcitonin/CALCA Protein, Mouse (HEK293, Fc) is 94 a.a., with molecular weight of 42-46 kDa.

The Calcitonin/CALCA protein is known to induce vasodilation, affecting various types of blood vessels such as the coronary, cerebral, and systemic vasculature. Its high concentration in the central nervous system suggests its involvement as a neurotransmitter or neuromodulator. Additionally, it has been observed to increase platelet cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) levels, indicating its potential impact on platelet function.

Greater than 95% as determined by Tris-Bis PAGE.

Lyophilized powder.

Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4. Normally 8% trehalose is added as protectant before

<0.1 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.

It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/mL in ddH₂O.

Stored at -20°C for 2 years. After reconstitution, it is stable at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for longer (with carrier protein). It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage.
