Other aliases include:

FLJ10761, Ren1, RENAA, RATRENAA, REN, ren, Renin

On the protein level the following designations are being used for antigen Renin:

renin – angiotensinogenase – renin precursor, renal – angiotensin-forming enzyme – renin 1 structural – prorenin – renin-like – preprorenin – Angiotensinogenase

Renin fulfills a number of functions:

aspartic-type endopeptidase activity – peptidase activity – receptor binding – endopeptidase activity – insulin-like growth factor receptor binding

Renin is relevant to the following processes:

angiotensin maturation – kidney development – proteolysis – regulation of MAPKKK cascade – regulation of blood pressure – cell maturation – drinking behavior – establishment of blood-nerve barrier – hormone-mediated signaling – male gonad development – mesonephros development – regulation of blood volume by renin-angiotensin – response to cAMP – response to cGMP – response to drug – response to stress

Locations for Renin:

cytoplasm – extracellular region – extracellular space – intracellular membrane-bounded organelle – membrane – cytoplasmic part
