ABMIUM target intelligence

AGT

angiotensinogen

Angiotensinogen (AGT), also known as serpin A8/SERPINA8, is the precursor protein of angiotensin peptides in the renin-angiotensin system. This ABMIUM record connects NCBI Gene 183 and UniProtKB P01019 to catalogue-backed research products.

Biological function

Angiotensinogen (AGT) is an essential precursor in the renin-angiotensin system. Renin cleavage generates angiotensin I, which is further processed to bioactive angiotensin peptides including angiotensin II, supporting regulation of blood pressure, vascular tone, body-fluid balance and electrolyte homeostasis.

Research context

Angiotensinogen/AGT is studied in the renin-angiotensin system, cardiovascular biology, blood-pressure regulation, renal physiology and fluid/electrolyte homeostasis. Review the linked ABMIUM research products and confirm species, sample type, application, assay format and product-level validation before use.

Interaction context

Proteins associated with AGT

Explore biologically relevant proteins connected to AGT through receptor complexes, pathway context, curated molecular relationships or database-supported functional evidence. Each relationship should be interpreted independently and does not establish reagent suitability.

REN

Functional association

UniProt and IntAct report interaction with renin, which proteolytically processes angiotensinogen in the renin-angiotensin system.

AGTR2

Functional association

UniProt reports angiotensin II derived from AGT as a ligand for AGTR2.

Interpretation: Identity, aliases and biological context were checked against NCBI Gene 183 and reviewed UniProtKB P01019 on 2026-08-17. Catalogue association does not establish suitability for a specific experiment; confirm product-level validation and sample compatibility.
