Membrane-associated progesterone receptor component 1

Progesterone receptor membrane component 1 (PGRMC1) is a protein which co-purifies with progesterone binding proteins in the liver and ovary. In humans, the PGRMC1 protein is encoded by the PGRMC1 gene. The Sigma-2 receptor was recently identified as potentially being the same as PGRMC1. The sole biochemical function of PGRMC1 is heme-binding. PGRMC1 shares key structural motifs with cytochrome b5. It binds and activates P450 proteins, which are important in drug, hormone and lipid metabolism. Also, PGRMC1 binds to PAIR-BP1 (plasminogen activator inhibitor RNA-binding protein-1). However, its expression outside of the reproductive tract and in males suggests multiple functions for the protein. These may include binding to Insig (insulin-induced gene), which regulates cholesterol synthesis.

Each vial contains 4 mg Trehalose, 0.9mg NaCl, 0.2mg Na2HPO4, 0.05 mg NaN3.
