Description: | Neurolysin protein, functioning as a versatile enzyme, hydrolyzes oligopeptides like neurotensin, bradykinin, and dynorphin A. In addition to its role in oligopeptide metabolism, Neurolysin regulates the cannabinoid signaling pathway by facilitating the degradation of hemopressin, an antagonist peptide for the cannabinoid receptor CNR1. This dual functionality positions Neurolysin as a key player in enzymatic breakdown and modulation of cannabinoid receptor signaling through hemopressin regulation. Neurolysin Protein, Human (His) is the recombinant human-derived Neurolysin protein, expressed by E. coli, with N-His labeled tag. The total length of Neurolysin Protein, Human (His) is 667 a.a., with molecular weight of ~67 kDa. |
