Product details
While the standard is the same as the one provided in the corresponding SimpleStep ELISA Kit, it cannot be treated as the consumable provided with our SimpleStep ELISA Kit due to differences in its concentration calibration.
Abcam guarantee that this protein standard is suitable for use in a sandwich ELISA. Individual results may vary due to differences in technique, laboratory equipment, buffers, and other experimental factors. The detection range provided for this protein standard is based on initial sandwich ELISA validation data.
The protein concentration is the concentration after validation on our sandwich ELISA platform. This Standard protein is guaranteed to work with our Capture and Detector antibodies in sELISA. Please contact our Scientific Support team to know which antibody pair is suitable for this protein.

Biological function summary
Angiotensinogen is critical in the regulation of blood pressure and fluid balance. It serves as the substrate for renin an enzyme that initiates a cascade leading to the production of angiotensin I which further converts into active forms like angiotensin II. Angiotensinogen does not operate as part of a larger protein complex but interacts closely with enzymes and other substrates to mediate its effects on the cardiovascular system.
Pathways
Angiotensinogen is an essential component of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) which helps regulate blood pressure and electrolyte balance. The pathway involves the conversion of angiotensinogen to angiotensin I by renin followed by the conversion to angiotensin II by angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE). This system also has connections with proteins such as aldosterone which is involved in sodium and water retention influencing cardiovascular health.

General info
Function
Essential component of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS), a potent regulator of blood pressure, body fluid and electrolyte homeostasis.. Angiotensin-2. Acts directly on vascular smooth muscle as a potent vasoconstrictor, affects cardiac contractility and heart rate through its action on the sympathetic nervous system, and alters renal sodium and water absorption through its ability to stimulate the zona glomerulosa cells of the adrenal cortex to synthesize and secrete aldosterone. Acts by binding to angiotensin receptors AGTR1 and AGTR2 (By similarity). Also binds the DEAR/FBXW7-AS1 receptor (PubMed : 9508787).. Angiotensin-3. Stimulates aldosterone release.. Angiotensin 1-7. Is a ligand for the G-protein coupled receptor MAS1 (By similarity). Has vasodilator and antidiuretic effects (By similarity). Has an antithrombotic effect that involves MAS1-mediated release of nitric oxide from platelets (PubMed : 18026570).
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the serpin family.
Post-translational modifications
In response to low blood pressure, the enzyme renin/REN cleaves angiotensinogen to produce angiotensin-1. Angiotensin-1 is a substrate of ACE (angiotensin converting enzyme) that removes a dipeptide to yield the physiologically active peptide angiotensin-2. Angiotensin-1 and angiotensin-2 can be further processed to generate angiotensin-3, angiotensin-4. Angiotensin 1-9 is cleaved from angiotensin-1 by ACE2 and can be further processed by ACE to produce angiotensin 1-7, angiotensin 1-5 and angiotensin 1-4. Angiotensin 1-7 has also been proposed to be cleaved from angiotensin-2 by ACE2 or from angiotensin-1 by MME (neprilysin) (By similarity).. The disulfide bond is labile. Angiotensinogen is present in the circulation in a near 40:60 ratio with the oxidized disulfide-bonded form, which preferentially interacts with receptor-bound renin.
