MyBioSource.com's Rabbit Anti-Mast Cell Chymase Antibody is a Rabbit Polyclonal antibody. This antibody has been shown to work in applications such as: Western Blot. The Rabbit Anti-Mast Cell Chymase Antibody was generated using chymase 1, and CMA1 as the antigen and it reacts with Homo Sapiens, Human, and Mouse.
Description
This gene encodes a chymotryptic serine proteinase that belongs to the peptidase family S1. It is expressed in mast cells and is thought to function in the degradation of the extracellular matrix, the regulation of submucosal gland secretion, and the generation of vasoactive peptides. In the heart and blood vessels, this protein, rather than angiotensin converting enzyme, is largely responsible for converting angiotensin I to the vasoactive peptide angiotensin II. Alternative splicing results in multiple variants
