| Description | Inquire | Proteinase K is a stable and highly reactive serine protease. Evidence from crystal and molecular structure studies indicates the enzyme belongs to the subtilisin family with an active-site catalytic triad (Asp39-His69-Ser224). It is stable in a broad range of environments: pH, buffer salts, Proteinase K is a stable and highly reactive serine protease. Evidence from crystal and molecular structure studies indicates the enzyme belongs to the subtilisin family with an active-site catalytic triad (Asp39-His69-Ser224). It is stable in a broad range of environments: pH, buffer salts, detergents (SDS), and temperature. In the presence of 0.1-0.5% SDS, proteinase K retains activity and will digest a variety of proteins and nucleases in DNA preparations without compromising the integrity of the isolated DNA.ApplicationUseful for the proteolytic inactivation of nucleases during the isolation of DNA and RNA.Removes endotoxins that bind to cationic proteins such as lysozyme and ribonuclease A.Reported useful for the isolation of hepatic, yeast, and mung bean mitochondriaDetermination of enzyme localization on membranesTreatment of paraffin embedded tissue sections to expose antigen binding sites for antibody labeling.Digestion of proteins from brain tissue samples for prions in Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathies (TSE) research...

It is a secreted phosphoglycoprotein that belongs to the clade F subfamily, serpin superfamily of proteinase inhibitors. The PEDF is a Purity>97% by SDS-PAGE and HPLC analyses.FunctionPigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF) is encoded by the SERPINF1 gene in humans and found in verebrates. It is a secreted phosphoglycoprotein that belongs to the clade F subfamily, serpin superfamily of proteinase inhibitors. The PEDF is a noninhibitory serpin with neurotrophic, anti-angiogenic, and anti-tumorigenic properties. It is synthesized as a 418 a.a. about 50kDa precursor that contains a 19 a.a. signal sequence and a 399 a.a. mature region that shows a pyroglutamate at Gln20. Like other serpins, it contains three β-sheets, 810 α-helices, and a C-terminal RCL (reactive center loop). Unlike other serpins with Ser protease inhibiting activity. PEDF has functions of inducing extensive neuronal differentiation in retinoblastoma cells, inhibiting of angiogenesis. As it does not undergo the S (stressed) to R (relaxed) conformational transition characteristic of active serpins, it exhibits no serine protease inhibitory activity. PEDF is researched as a therapeutic candidate for treatment of such conditions as choroidal neovascularization, heart disease, and cancer...

It encodes a mitochondrial protein that forms a homotetramer and binds one manganese ion per subunit. SOD2 binds to the superoxide byproducts Purity:>90%, by SDS-PAGE visualized with Coomassie® Blue Staining.Description:SOD2 is part of the iron/manganese superoxide dismutase family. It encodes a mitochondrial protein that forms a homotetramer and binds one manganese ion per subunit. SOD2 binds to the superoxide byproducts of oxidative phosphorylation and converts them to hydrogen peroxide and diatomic oxygen. Mutations in SOD2 gene have been associated with idiopathic cardiomyopathy (IDC), premature aging, sporadic motor neuron disease, and cancer. SOD2 destroys radicals which are usually produced within the cells and which are toxic to biological systems...

The virus is a member of the Orthopoxvirus genus in the family Poxviridae. And its genome is a double-stranded DNA. The Purity:>95%, by SDS-PAGE visualized with Coomassie® Blue Staining.Description:The monkeypox virus is the causative agent of the infectious disease of monkeypox. The virus is a member of the Orthopoxvirus genus in the family Poxviridae. And its genome is a double-stranded DNA. The disease caused by the virus is similar to but milder than smallpox and its mortality is often much lower. Humans and animals are both hosts for monkeypox virus and both species are vulnerable to the virus and may develop diseases. Monkeypox virus is mainly distributed in rainforests of west and central Africa. Isolates from Central Africa and Western Africa is different in virulence and the former is more virulent than the latter. The virus could spread in animals and humans and direct contact with the body fluid of an infected animal or being bitten may infect the virus... Read More |
