Product Specific Information

RP-75697 contains a purified 114 amino acid fragment (aa3-116) corresponding to the unprocessed human procalcitonin protein with an N-terminal hexahistidine tag.

RP-75697 may be used as a positive control in many immunological assays.

Target Information

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 while katacalcin is a calcium-lowering peptide. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
