活性:
Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA.Immobilized Human LDL R, Strep Tag (Cat# LDR-H5281) at 10 μg/mL (100 μl/well) can bind Mouse PCSK9, His Tag (Cat# PC9-M5228 ) with a linear range of 2-30 ng/mL.
产品背景:
Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) is also known as NARC1 (neural apoptosis regulated convertase), is a newly identified subtilase belonging to the peptidase S8 subfamily. Mouse PCSK9 is synthesized as a soluble zymogen, and undergoes autocatalytic intramolecular processing in the endoplasmic reticulum, resulting in the cleavage of its propeptide that remains associated with the secreted active enzyme with a broad alkaline pH optimum. This protein plays a major regulatory role in cholesterol homeostasis. PCSK9 binds to the epidermal growth factor-like repeat A (EGF-A) domain of the low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR), inducing LDLR degradation. PCSK9 may also have a role in the differentiation of cortical neurons. Mutations in this gene have been associated with a rare form of autosomal dominant familial hypercholesterolemia (HCHOLA3).
产品描述:
Mouse PCSK9, His Tag is fused with a polyhistidine tag at the C-terminus, and has a calculated MW of 72 kDa. The predicted N-terminus is Gln 35. The reducing (R) protein migrates as 20 kDa and 64 kDa in SDS-PAGE due to glycosylation and proteolytic digestion.
