Recombinant Human Kelch-Like protein 41/Kell/CD238 (C-6His)

Source: Human Cells. MW :78.4kD. Recombinant Human Kelch-like protein 41 is produced by our Mammalian expression system and the target gene encoding Asn68-Trp732 is expressed with a 6His tag at the C-terminus. Kell blood group glycoprotein (KEL) is a single-pass type II membrane protein which belongs to the peptidase M13 family. It is expressed in Expressed at high levels in erythrocytes and testis, and, at lower levels, in skeletal muscle, tonsils, lymph node, spleen and appendix. KEL has been shown zinc endopeptidase with endothelin-3-converting enzyme activity. It cleaves EDN1, EDN2 and EDN3, with a marked preference for EDN3. It links via a single disulfide bond to the XK membrane protein that carries the Kx antigen. Protein function: Zinc endopeptidase with endothelin-3-converting enzyme activity. Cleaves EDN1, EDN2 and EDN3, with a marked preference for EDN3. [The UniProt Consortium]
