Profile: Nova Lifetech Inc. is a supplier of bovine ELISA kit, human ELISA kit, mouse ELISA kit, porcine ELISA kit, and rat ELISA kit. The proto-oncogene MAS is a G protein-coupled receptor located on the plasma membrane. In transfected NIH/3T3 cells, MAS has a weak focus-inducing activity. MAS1 is an antagonist of the Angiotensin II type 1 (AT1) receptor, inhibiting the actions of Angiotensin II. MAS localizes to cardiomyocytes of the heart in mice. Mice deficient for MAS demonstrate a lower systolic blood pressure & heart rate. The proper structure and function of the heart may be impaired by non-functional MAS.
