Bradykinin RB2/BDKRB2 Products

Description

BDKRB2, or Bradykinin Receptor B2, mediates smooth muscle contraction, induces relaxation of arteries, and stimulates diuresis. In addition, bradykinin B2 receptor has been implicated in inflammation and response to pain. This receptor is encoded by a single-copy gene. Two variants are produced by alternate start codons. BDKRB2/Bradykinin B2 receptor expression has been reported in blood, brain, eye, kidney, liver, lung, prostate, skin, small intestine, synovium, uterus, and vessel. ESTs have been isolated from colon, connective tissue, heart, heart/melanocyte/uterus, kidney, lung, placenta, and thyroid libraries.
