• Background: β-Calcitonin Gene-Related Peptide (β-CGRP) is a 37-amino acid peptide involved extensively in regulation of the cardiovascular and nervous systems. β-CGRP contains a disulphide bridge at the N-terminus, a C-terminal phenylalanine amide important for immune recognition, and an a-helix between residues 8 and 18. This antibody was generated by immunization of rabbits with β-Calcitonin Gene- Related Peptide coupled to a carrier protein.
• Synonyms: CALC2; CGRP-II; CGRP2; FLJ30166
