Product Information

• Name: Urotensin II-Related Peptide (human, mouse, rat) trifluoroacetate salt
• Synonyms: H-Ala-Cys-Phe-Trp-Lys-Tyr-Cys-Val-OH H-ACFWKYCV-OH
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Urotensin II is a peptide that is expressed in the brain and has hypotensive effects. It is an endogenous ligand for the urotensin II receptor, which is found in various tissues including the heart, vascular system, and lungs. Urotensin II-Related Peptide (URP) was identified from cDNA sequences of human, mouse, and rat tissues. The URP consists of a sequence of amino acids with a molecular weight of 1219. This peptide has been shown to have diagnostic use in tissues and animals as well as being immunoreactive in monoclonal antibodies. The gene encoding URP has been cloned and its protein product has been characterized by mass spectroscopy.
