Atrial Natriuretic Peptide (1-28), human, porcine - ANA20647 - 0.5 mg - AnaSpec - proteins & peptides

One of the three mammalian Natriuretic peptides, A-type is the Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) also called Cardiodilatin (CDD). ANP (1-28) peptide hormone constitutes the first 28 amino acids of the ANP synthesized in the heart of different vertebrates. It plays an important role in the regulation of blood pressure and natriuresis/diuresis. Residues Phe8, Arg14 and the C-terminal sequence of ANP are known to bind to human NPR-A (Natriuretic peptide receptor type A).
