SYBR Green qPCR primers for detecting human HAMP (hepcidin antimicrobial peptide, also called PLTR) gene expression by real-time PCR. Each set comes with primer sequences and reaction conditions.
Human HAMP qPCR Primer Set – hepcidin antimicrobial peptide
Also known as: HEPC, HFE2B, LEAP1, PLTR
About this gene: The product encoded by HAMP is involved in the maintenance of iron homeostasis, and it is necessary for the regulation of iron storage in macrophages, and for intestinal iron absorption. The preproprotein is post-translationally cleaved into mature peptides of 20, 22 and 25 amino acids, and these active peptides are rich in cysteines, which form intramolecular bonds that stabilize their beta-sheet structures. These peptides exhibit antimicrobial activity against bacteria and fungi.
Gene details: NCBI Gene ID: 57817; HGNC ID: HGNC:15598; UniProt: P81172; RefSeq (MANE Select): NM_021175.4; Chromosome location: 19q13.12
What you get: Primers are provided as a 40 µl solution containing both primers at a final concentration of 50 µM in 10 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.5), 0.1 mM EDTA. Dilute with H2O as needed prior to use. This amount is sufficient for 1,000 PCR reactions of 20 µl, assuming a final primer concentration of 0.1 µM.
