NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a preproprotein that is proteolytically processed to generate a secreted peptide that belongs to the endothelin/sarafotoxin family. This peptide is a potent vasoconstrictor and its cognate receptors are therapeutic targets in the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension. Aberrant expression of this gene may promote tumorigenesis. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2015]

Product Notes
The Human ET-1 edn1 (Catalog #AAA3801076) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA3801076 ELISA Kit recognizes Human ET-1. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Endothelin 1 (ET-1), 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
