ECE-1 Protein, Human (HEK293, His)
The ECE-1 protein plays a key role in vascular regulation by catalyzing the conversion of large endothelin-1 to endothelin-1. This enzymatic process is a critical step in the maturation of endothelin-1, a potent vasoconstrictor and signaling molecule involved in the regulation of blood pressure, vascular tone, and various physiological functions. ECE-1 Protein, Human (HEK293, His) is the recombinant human-derived ECE-1 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with N-8*His labeled tag.
- Species: Human
- Source: HEK293

This enzymatic process is a critical step in the maturation of endothelin-1, a potent vasoconstrictor and signaling molecule involved in the regulation of blood pressure, vascular tone, and various physiological functions.

Background
The ECE-1 protein is a crucial enzyme involved in the conversion of big endothelin-1 to endothelin-1. This conversion plays a pivotal role in the maturation and activation of endothelin-1, a peptide with potent vasoconstrictor effects. By catalyzing the cleavage of big endothelin-1, ECE-1 contributes to the regulation of vascular tone and blood pressure. The activation of endothelin-1 has implications in various physiological processes, including cardiovascular homeostasis and smooth muscle contraction. As a key enzyme in the endothelin system, ECE-1's enzymatic activity is central to modulating vascular function and maintaining cardiovascular health (

Product Properties
Lyophilized powder.
<1 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.
It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/mL in ddH2O. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS or 5% Trehalose).
Stored at -20°C for 2 years from date of receipt. 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.
Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere.
