Product Overview
Description:
Recombinant Carassius auratus Leptin Protein is expressed in P. pastoris with an N-8×His tag. The eukaryotic P. pastoris host supports proper folding and disulfide-bond formation, and the His-tag enables straightforward purification and detection. Recombinant Carassius auratus leptin protein-tag is a specialized teleost cytokine engineered with a His-tag for enhanced stability during comparative endocrinology studies. It serves as an invaluable and highly specific tool for aquaculture research and studying fish energy homeostasis pathways. It is suitable for a range of in vitro and cell-based research applications, including protein characterization, binding, and functional studies.

Summary:
Leptin (LEP) is an adipocyte-derived hormone secreted by white adipocytes into the systemic circulation, where it governs energy homeostasis. By binding its receptor in the brain, leptin activates downstream signaling that suppresses feeding and increases energy expenditure, while additionally exerting endocrine actions on immune and inflammatory responses, hematopoiesis, angiogenesis, reproduction, bone formation, and wound healing. Mutations within LEP or its regulatory regions cause severe and morbid obesity with hypogonadism in patients and contribute to the development and progression of type 2 diabetes mellitus.
