• Assay Type: Developed Protein
• Relevance: Subtilisin is an extracellular alkaline serine protease, it catalyzes the hydrolysis of proteins and peptide amides. Subtilisin NAT also has fibrinolytic activity. Miscellaneous Secretion of subtilisin is associated with onset of sporulation, and many mutations which block sporulation at early stages affect expression levels of subtilisin. However, subtilisin is not necessary for normal sporulation. In Japan this enzyme, isolated from a process of fermentation involving boiled soybeans and Bacillus natto, is used as a food supplement because it is reported to reduce and prevent blood clotting. Catalytic activityi Hydrolysis of proteins with broad specificity for peptide bonds, and a preference for a large uncharged residue in P1. Hydrolyzes peptide amides. EC:3.4.21.62
• Purity: Greater than 85% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
• Activity: Not Test
• Length: Full Length of Mature Protein
• Form: Liquid or Lyophilized powder
• Buffer: If the delivery form is liquid, the default storage buffer is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 5%-50% glycerol. If the delivery form is lyophilized powder, the buffer before lyophilization is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 6% Trehalose, pH 8.0.
• Reconstitution: We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Please reconstitute protein in deionized sterile water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL.We recommend to add 5-50% of glycerol (final concentration) and aliquot for long-term storage at -20℃/-80℃. Our default final concentration of glycerol is 50%. Customers could use it as reference.
