AdipoGen NUCB2 mouse rec His
![]()
Protein. Mouse nucleobindin-2 aa 25-420 is fused at the C-terminus to a His-tag. Source E. coli. Endotoxin content <1EU/µg purified protein LAL test Lonza. Liquid. 0.2µm-filtered solution in PBS, pH 7.2. Purity >90% SDS-PAGE. Nucleobindin-2 NUCB2 Prepronesfatin was first isolated in adipocytes, but is also expressed by gastric mucosa and pancreatic beta cells. This pattern of nucleobindin-2 expression, as well as the presence of nucleobindin-2 within the plasma of rodents and humans, strongly suggests that this compound may act as a circulating regulatory factor. NUCB2 can be cleaved into three polypeptides nesfatin-1, nesfatin-2, and nesfatin-3. Anorexigenic effects have been described for nesfatin-1 that plays an important role in hypothalamic pathways regulating food intake and energy homeostasis and acting in a leptin-independent manner. Nesfatin-1 may also exert hypertensive roles and modulate blood pressure through directly acting on peripheral arterial resistance.
