Same day shipping for this laboratory reagent.Albumin is a water-soluble protein with considerable structural stability. It is the most abundant of the human proteins, making up 60% of the total protein of plasma. It functions as a carrier of hormones, enzymes, fatty acids, metal ions, and medicinal products. For over fifty years, it has been used as a therapeutic agent for the restoration and maintenance of circulating blood volume for trauma, surgery and burn patients.Ref: Matejtschuk, P., Dash, C.H., and Gascoigne, E.W. 2000.

It cleaves heme to biliverdin, carbon monoxide, and iron. The biliverdin is subsequently converted to bilirubin by biliverdin reductase. Purity:>98%, by SDS-PAGE visualized with Coomassie® Blue Staining.Description：Heme oxygenase (HMOX) is the rate limiting enzyme in heme catabolism. It cleaves heme to biliverdin, carbon monoxide, and iron. The biliverdin is subsequently converted to bilirubin by biliverdin reductase. The mechanism of HMOX is unique in that heme serves as the substrate of the enzyme and as the prosthetic group for the activation of iron-bound O2. HMOX activity is highest in spleen where senescent erythrocytes are sequestered and destroyed. Two isoforms, HMOX1 and HMOX2, are expressed in most tissues. HMOX1 is an inducible enzyme in response to heme, heavy metals, oxidative stress, cytokines, and many drugs. Whereas HMOX2 displays a constitutive expression. HMOX1 is expressed mainly in spleen, liver, and kidney, and HMOX2 is prominently expressed in the brain and testes. The increased expression of HMOX1 levels is related to a variety of pathological states, where it functions as a cytoprotective molecule through its by products. HMOX1 also plays important roles in the regulation of cell proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis...

It is a secreted phosphoglycoprotein that belongs to the clade F subfamily, serpin superfamily of proteinase inhibitors. The PEDF is a Purity＞97% by SDS-PAGE and HPLC analyses.FunctionPigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF) is encoded by the SERPINF1 gene in humans and found in verebrates. It is a secreted phosphoglycoprotein that belongs to the clade F subfamily, serpin superfamily of proteinase inhibitors. The PEDF is a noninhibitory serpin with neurotrophic, anti-angiogenic, and anti-tumorigenic properties. It is synthesized as a 418 a.a. about 50kDa precursor that contains a 19 a.a. signal sequence and a 399 a.a. mature region that shows a pyroglutamate at Gln20. Like other serpins, it contains three β-sheets, 810 α-helices, and a C-terminal RCL (reactive center loop). Unlike other serpins with Ser protease inhibiting activity. PEDF has functions of inducing extensive neuronal differentiation in retinoblastoma cells, inhibiting of angiogenesis. As it does not undergo the S (stressed) to R (relaxed) conformational transition characteristic of active serpins, it exhibits no serine protease inhibitory activity. PEDF is researched as a therapeutic candidate for treatment of such conditions as choroidal neovascularization, heart disease, and cancer... Read More | Inquire |
