Recombinant Pegylated Rat Leptin Quadruple Antagonist is supplied as a recombinant protein for in vitro research use.
Background
Leptin is a hormone which mainly produced by adipocytes. Leptin’s main part is to regulate long-term energy balance. Leptin is encoded by the LEP gene. Leptin receptors are expressed by various brain and peripheral cell types. leptin levels influence satiety, appetite and triggers behaviors which lead to energy savings. High leptin levels are interpreted by the brain that energy reserves are high, whereas low leptin levels means that energy reserves are low, in the process adapting the organism to starvation through a variety of metabolic, neurobiochemical, endocrine and behavioral change.
Product format
Provided as a recombinant protein suitable for in vitro workflows such as binding studies, screening, and assay development. Refer to the specifications table for expression format and molecular properties.
