The molecular weight is 34,500 daltons, the pH optimum is 8.0, and pI is 6.0.Carboxypeptidase B is competitively inhibited by arginine and lysine. The enzyme is Carboxypeptidase B catalyzes hydrolysis of the basic amino acids lysine, arginine and histidine from theC-terminal end of polypeptides. The molecular weight is 34,500 daltons, the pH optimum is 8.0, and pI is 6.0.Carboxypeptidase B is competitively inhibited by arginine and lysine. The enzyme is also inhibited by metal chelating agents, e.g., EDTA. Recombinant Carboxypeptidase B (EC 3.4.17.2) is expressed in E.Coli and purified by high pressure liquid chromatography. There is no trace of other enzyme (such as carboxypeptidase A and chymotrypsin) activity. No protease inhibitors such as PMSF are present in the preparation.Animal origin free:eliminate the risk of virus presence, or of any other potential adventitious agents found in animal-derived carboxypeptitase B.Stability:A sterile recombinant carboxypeptidase B lyophilized eliminates the risk of contamination and decreases the chances of activity loss in the process of transport and storage. High purity:1) Recombinant carboxypeptidase B provides increased specific activity and eliminates contaminating protease activities found in extracted enzymes with lower purity level. 2) No other contaminating proteases such as chymotrypsin and carboxypeptidase A. 3）Less than 10ppm of recombinant trypsin...

Purity is greater than 98% as determined by SEC-HPLC and reducing SDS-PAGE.FunctionCytokine that stimulates the growth and differentiation of hematopoietic precursor cells from various lineages, including granulocytes, macrophages, eosinophils and erythrocytes.Human Granulocyte-Macrophage Colony Stimulating Factor Granulocyte-Macrophage Colony Stimulating Factor (GM-CSF) is secreted by a number of different cell types (including activated T cells, B cells, macrophages, mast cells, endothelial cells and fibroblasts) in response to cytokine or immune and inflammatory stimulation. It was initially characterized as a growth factor that can support the in vitro colony formation of granulocyte-macrophage progenitors and has functions of stimulates the growth and differentiation of hematopoietic precursor cells from various lineages. GM-CSF has also been reported to have a functional role on non-hematopoietic cells and can induce human endothelial cells to migrate and proliferate. Additionally, it can stimulate the proliferation of a number of tumor cell lines, including osteogenic sarcoma, carcinoma and adenocarcinoma cell lines. GM-CSF is used as a medication to stimulate the production of white blood cells following chemotherapy and has also recently been evaluated in clinical trials for its potential as a vaccine adjuvant in HIV-infected patients. The recombinant Human GM-CSF is a non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 127 amino acids...

KGF expression is restricted to cells of mesenchymal origin. When secreted, it acts as a paracrine growth factor for nearby epithelial cells (1). KGF speeds wound healing by being dramatically upregulated in response to damage to skin or internal structures that results in high local concentrations of inflammatory mediators such as IL-1 and TNF-alpha. (2, 5). KGF promotes cell migration and invasion, and mediates melanocyte transfer to keratinocytes upon UVB radiation (6, 7). It has been used ectopically to avoid chemotherapy-induced oral mucositis in patients with hematological malignancies (1). Deletion of KGF affects kidney development, producing abnormally small ureteric buds and fewer nephrons (8). It also impedes hair follicle differentiation (9). The 194 amino acid (aa) KGF precursor contains a 31 aa signal sequence and, like all other FGFs, an ~120 aa beta -trefoil scaffold that includes receptor- and heparin-binding sites. KGF signals only through the IIIb splice form of the tyrosine kinase receptor, FGF R2 (FGF R2-IIIb/KGF R) (10). Receptor dimerization requires an octameric or larger heparin or heparin sulfate proteoglycan (11). FGF-10, also called KGF2, shares 51% aa identity and similar function to KGF, but shows more limited expression than KGF and uses an additional receptor, FGF R2-IIIc (12). Following receptor engagement, KGF is typically degraded, while FGF-10 is recycled (12). Mature human KGF, which is active across species, shares 98% aa sequence identity with bovine, equine, ovine and canine, 96% with mouse and porcine, and 92% with rat KGF, respectively... Read More |
