products description :
Principle of the Assay: This assay employs the quantitative sandwich enzyme immunoassay technique. Antibody specific for REG3G has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and any REG3G present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for REG3G is added to the wells. After washing, avidin conjugated Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to the wells. Following a wash to remove any unbound avidin-enzyme reagent, a substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of REG3G bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.

ncbi summary :
Renin catalyzes the first step in the activation pathway of angiotensinogen--a cascade that can result in aldosterone release,vasoconstriction, and increase in blood pressure. Renin, an aspartyl protease, cleaves angiotensinogen to form angiotensin I, which is converted to angiotensin II by angiotensin I converting enzyme, an important regulator of blood pressure and electrolyte balance. Transcript variants that encode different protein isoforms and that arise from alternative splicing and the use of alternative promoters have been described, but their full-length nature has not been determined. Mutations in this gene have been shown to cause familial hyperproreninemia. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
uniprot summary :
Function: Renin is a highly specific endopeptidase, whose only known function is to generate angiotensin I from angiotensinogen in the plasma, initiating a cascade of reactions that produce an elevation of blood pressure and increased sodium retention by the kidney. Catalytic activity: Cleavage of Leu- -Xaa bond in angiotensinogen to generate angiotensin I. Enzyme regulation: Interaction with ATP6AP2 results in a 5-fold increased efficiency in angiotensinogen processing.
