Human Hepcidin/HAMP Protein 3274

$300.00 – $1,000.00

Summary

Expression: E.coli
Pure: Yes (SDS-PAGE)
Amino Acid Range: Asp60-Thr84

SKU: 3274parent Categories: proteins, Recombinant proteins Tag: active proteins

Weight	1 lbs
Dimensions	9 × 5 × 2 in
accession	P81172
express system	E.coli
product tag	N-GST
purity	> 95% as determined by Tris-Bis PAGE
background	Hepcidin, the main regulator of iron metabolism, is synthesized and released by hepatocytes in response to increased body iron concentration and inflammation. Deregulation of hepcidin expression is a common feature of genetic and acquired iron disorders: in Hereditary Hemochromatosis (HH) and iron-loading anemias low hepcidin causes iron overload, while in Iron Refractory Iron Deficiency Anemia (IRIDA) and anemia of inflammation (AI), high hepcidin levels induce iron-restricted erythropoiesis.
molecular weight	The protein has a predicted MW of 29.08 kDa same as Tris-Bis PAGE result.
available size	100 µg, 500 µg
endotoxin	Less than 1EU per μg by the LAL method.

Protein names Hepcidin (Liver-expressed antimicrobial peptide 1) (LEAP-1) (Putative liver tumor regressor) (PLTR) [Cleaved into: Hepcidin-25 (Hepc25); Hepcidin-20 (Hepc20)]
Gene names HAMP,HAMP HEPC LEAP1 UNQ487/PRO1003
Protein family Hepcidin family
Mass 9606Da
Function Liver-produced hormone that constitutes the main circulating regulator of iron absorption and distribution across tissues. Acts by promoting endocytosis and degradation of ferroportin/SLC40A1, leading to the retention of iron in iron-exporting cells and decreased flow of iron into plasma (PubMed:22682227, PubMed:29237594, PubMed:32814342). Controls the major flows of iron into plasma: absorption of dietary iron in the intestine, recycling of iron by macrophages, which phagocytose old erythrocytes and other cells, and mobilization of stored iron from hepatocytes (PubMed:22306005).; Has strong antimicrobial activity against E.coli ML35P N.cinerea and weaker against S.epidermidis, S.aureus and group b streptococcus bacteria. Active against the fungus C.albicans. No activity against P.aeruginosa (PubMed:11034317, PubMed:11113131).
Subellular location Secreted .
Tissues Highest expression in liver and to a lesser extent in heart and brain. Low levels in lung, tonsils, salivary gland, trachea, prostate gland, adrenal gland and thyroid gland. Secreted into the urine and blood (PubMed:11034317). Expressed by hepatocytes (PubMed:15124018).
Structure Interacts with SLC40A1; this interaction promotes SLC40A1 rapid ubiquitination.
