SYNONYMS
Natriuretic Peptide Precursor C, C-Type Natriuretic Peptide, CNP2, CNP.
INTRODUCTION
NPPC is proteolytically managed to create a secreted hormone of the natriuretic peptide family. NPPC is vasoactive and natriuretic and controls the evolution and differentiation of cartilaginous growth plate chondrocytes.
DESCRIPTION
NPPC Human Recombinant produced in E.coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 126 amino acids (24-126) and having a molecular mass of 13.2kDa.
NPPC is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
