Biological function summary
The renin enzyme is responsible for blood pressure control and electrolyte homeostasis. It acts as a significant regulator within the renin-angiotensin aldosterone system (RAAS). By catalyzing the formation of angiotensin I from angiotensinogen renin sets off a sequence of reactions that influence vascular tone and sodium reabsorption. The activity of renin significantly interacts with various cardiovascular functions alongside complex regulatory feedback from other hormones such as aldosterone.
Pathways
Renin is a pivotal part of RAAS and interlinks with multiple cardiovascular pathways. The RAAS pathway involves angiotensinogen renin angiotensin I converting enzyme (ACE) and angiotensin II. Angiotensin II then acts on its receptor to mediate vasoconstriction and aldosterone secretion. The direct relationship between renin and ACE places this enzyme in the center of blood pressure management and has implications on kidney function and homeostasis.

Additional notes
ab168875 was purified using anion-exchange chromatography and gel-filtration chromatography with 20mM Tris pH 7.5, 2mM EDTA.
General info
Function
Renin is a highly specific endopeptidase, whose only known function is to generate angiotensin I from angiotensinogen in the plasma, initiating a cascade of reactions that produce an elevation of blood pressure and increased sodium retention by the kidney.
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the peptidase A1 family.
