DUSP14 Protein, Human, Recombinant (His & MBP Tag)

• Background:

  Dual specific phosphatase 14 / MAP-kinase phophatase-6 (DUSP14 / MKP6) is a member of Dual-specificity phosphatases that is a subclass of protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTP) families that can dephosphorylate bothe phosphotyrosine and phosphoserine / phosphothreonine residues in substrates. Unlike many other DUSPs, DUSP14 only contains a catalytic domain within the C-terminal region. In signal transduction, DUSP14 has been considered as negative regulator of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) / extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1 / 2 (ERK 1 / 2) pathway. DUSP14 phosphatase activity has been confirmed to be inhibited by PTP inhibitor IV. PTP inhibitor binds to the catalytic site of DUSP14. PTP inhibitor IV effectively and specifically inhibited DUSP14-mediated dephosphorylation of JNK, a member of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) family through dephosphorylation of both the Ser / Thr and Tyr residues of MAPKs.

  Please contact us for more information.

• Purity:

  > 88 % as determined by SDS-PAGE.

• Activity:

  At Leading Biology, the biological activity of a recombinant protein is routinely measured using a bioassay, e.g. chemotaxis or cell proliferation assay, enzyme assay, or a functional ELISA. When a recombinant protein is an enzyme, specific activity is derived from an enzymatic assay. Each enzyme is tested for potency by cleavage of a substrate. We are in the process of updating the biological activity data. If you have any questions regarding this update, please feel free to contact our technical support team.

• Form:

  Lyophilized

• Buffer:

  Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.5 Please contact us for any concerns or special requirements. Normally 5 % - 8 % trehalose, mannitol and 0.01% Tween 80 are added as protectants before lyophilization. Please refer to the specific buffer information in the hard copy of CoA.

• Function:

  Enzyme Proteins

• Molecular Weight:

  The recombinant human DUSP14/MBP fusion protein consists of 587 amino acids and has a calculated molecular mass of 65 kDa. It migrates as an approximately 60 kDa band in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions.

• Storage Conditions:

  In general, recombinant proteins are provided as lyophilized powder which are shipped at ambient temperature. Bulk packages of recombinant proteins are provided as frozen liquid. They are shipped out with blue ice unless customers require otherwise. Stable for 1 year at -20°C or below from date of shipment. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and opening the cap. For long-term storage, aliquot and store at -20°C or below. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
