SYNONYMS
Meprin A subunit beta (EC:3.4.24.63), Endopeptidase-2, Meprin B, Mep1b, Mep-1b.
INTRODUCTION
Meprin A subunit beta (MEP1B) belongs to the astacin family of zinc endopeptidases 1, 2. MEP1B is a disulfide-linked, tetrameric metalloendopeptidase in renal brush border membranes. MEP1B is highly regulated, secreted cell-surface metalloendopeptidase, which is amply expressed in the kidney and intestine.
DESCRIPTION
MEP1B produced in Sf9 Insect cells is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 642 amino acids (21-654aa) and having a molecular mass of 72.6kDa. (Molecular size on SDS-PAGE will appear at approximately 70-100kDa).
MEP1Bis expressed with an 8 amino acid His tag at C-Terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
SOURCE
Sf9 Insect cells.
PHYSICAL APPEARANCE
Sterile filtered colorless solution.
FORMULATION
MEP1B protein solution (0.25mg/ml) contains Phosphate Buffered Saline (pH 7.4) and 10% glycerol.
STABILITY
Store at 4°C if entire vial will be used within 2-4 weeks. Store, frozen at -20°C for longer periods of time.
For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).
Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles.
PURITY
Greater than 90.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
