| Biological Activity: | 4µg (160pmoles) of recombinant human proendothelin-1 when cleaved with furin and chymosin has been shown to produce endothelin-1 mediated vasoconstriction of rat vas deferens and rabbit carotid artery. |
| |
| Source/Host: | Produced in XL1-Blue cells. Human proendothelin-1 (aa 18-212) is fused to a His-tag. The N-terminal peptide sequence Met-Arg-Gly-Ser-(His)6 replaces the signal peptide. |
