Probing a redox switch to save lives : development of a bioassay for angiotensinogen to identify women prone to pre-eclampsia.
Angiotensinogen is a blood protein that plays a critical role in the regulation of blood pressure in the body. This protein exists in two forms, oxidised and reduced, determined by the presence or absence of a disulfide bridge between Cys 18 and Cys 138. The ratio of oxidised to reduced angiotensino...
