NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a member of the type II transmembrane serine protease class of the trypsin superfamily. Members of this family are composed of multiple structurally distinct domains. The encoded protein converts pro-atrial natriuretic peptide to biologically active atrial natriuretic peptide, a cardiac hormone that regulates blood volume and pressure. This protein may also function as a pro-brain-type natriuretic peptide convertase. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Uniprot Description
CORIN: Serine-type endopeptidase involved in atrial natriuretic peptide hormone (NPPA) processing. Converts through proteolytic cleavage the non-functional propeptide NPPA into the active hormone, thereby regulating blood pressure in heart and promoting natriuresis, diuresis and vasodilation. Proteolytic cleavage of pro-NPPA also plays a role in female pregnancy by promoting trophoblast invasion and spiral artery remodeling in uterus. Also acts as a regulator of sodium reabsorption in kidney. May also process pro-NPPB the B-type natriuretic peptide. Defects in CORIN are the cause of pre-eclampsia/eclampsia 5 (PEE5); also known as gestational proteinuric hypertension. Preeclampsia is a pregnancy-associated disease with maternal symptoms but placental origin. Unlike most other human disorders, it impacts 2 individuals, the mother and her child, both of whom can be severely affected. Belongs to the peptidase S1 family. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Product Notes
The Human CORIN corin (Catalog #AAA3804006) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA3804006 ELISA Kit recognizes Human CORIN. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Atrial Natriuretic Peptide-Converting Enzyme, ELISA Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
