Neuroendocrine protein 7B2, Pituitary polypeptide, Secretogranin V, Secretogranin-5, Secretory granule endocrine protein I, N-terminal peptide, C-terminal peptide, SCG5, SGNE1
SCG5 acts as a molecular chaperone for PCSK2/PC2, preventing its premature activation in the regulated secretory pathway. It binds to inactive PCSK2 in the endoplasmic reticulum and facilitates its transport from there to later compartments of the secretory pathway where it is proteolytically matured and activated. Also required for cleavage of PCSK2 but does not appear to be involved in its folding. It plays a role in regulating pituitary hormone secretion. The C-terminal peptide inhibits PCSK2 in vitro.
Peptides are lyophilized in a solid powder format. Peptides can be reconstituted in solution using the appropriate buffer as needed.
Target:
The synthetic peptide sequence used to generate the antibody AP9012b was selected from the C-term region of human SCG5. A 10 to 100 fold molar excess to antibody is recommended. Precise conditions should be optimized for a particular assay.
