Hamster Pepsin ELISA Kit
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a protein precursor of the digestive enzyme pepsin, a member of the peptidase A1 family of endopeptidases. The encoded precursor is secreted by gastric chief cells and undergoes autocatalytic cleavage in acidic conditions to form the active enzyme, which functions in the digestion of dietary proteins. This gene is found in a cluster of related genes on chromosome 11, each of which encodes one of multiple pepsinogens. Pepsinogen levels in serum may serve as a biomarker for atrophic gastritis and gastric cancer. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2015]

Product Notes
The Hamster PP pga5 (Catalog #AAA028293) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA028293 ELISA Kit recognizes Hamster PP. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Pepsin, 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
