NPPA

SYNONYMS
Natriuretic peptides A, CDD-ANF, Cardiodilatin, CDD, Cardiodilatin-related peptide, CDP, N-terminal proatrial natriuretic peptide, ANP, PND. 

INTRODUCTION
Natriuretic Peptide A (NPPA) is a part of the natriuretic peptide family and is involved  in cardiovascular homeostasis through regulation of natriuresis, diuresis, and vasodilation. NPPA is synthesized as a great precursor which releases a peptide from the N-terminus with similarity to vasoactive peptide, cardiodilatin, and another peptide from the C-terminus with natriuretic-diuretic activity. In female pregnancy, NPPA is promoting trophoblast invasion and spiral artery remodeling in uterus.  

DESCRIPTION
NPPA Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain (a.a 26-123) containing 106 amino acids including an 8 a.a N-terminal His tag. The total molecular mass is 11.7kDa (calculated).
