| Cat. No. : |
FKBP4-514H |
| Description : |
FKBP4, also known as FKBP52, is a member of the immunophilin protein family, which play a role in immunoregulation and basic cellular processes involving protein folding and trafficking. It is a component of unactivated mammalian steroid receptor complexes and may play a role in the intracellular trafficking of hetero-oligomeric forms of the steroid hormone receptors.It interacts with interferon regulatory factor-4 and plays an important role in immunoregulatory gene expression inBandT lymphocytes. |

| Form : |
Liquid. In 20mM Tris-HCl (pH8.0) buffer containing 10% glycerol. |
| Purity : |
> 90% by SDS – PAGE. |
| Concentration : |
1 mg/ml (determined by Bradford assay). |
| Endotoxin Level : |
< 1.0 EU per 1 μg of protein (determined by LAL method). |
| Biological activity : |
Specific activity is > 300 nmoles/min/mg, and is defined as the amount of enzyme that cleaves 1umole of suc-AAFP-pNA per minute at 25°C in Tris-Hcl pH 8.0 using chymotrypsin. |
| Activity Assay : |
1. Prepare 170ul assay buffer into a suitable container and pre-chill on ice before use: The final concentrations are 200 mM Tris-Hcl, pH 8.0, and 20nM chymotrypsin.2. Add 10ul of recombinant FKBP4 protein with 1ug in assay buffer. 3. Mix by inversion and equilibrate to 1°C and monitor the A405nm until the value is constant using a spectrophotometer.4. Add 20ul pre-chilled 5mM suc-AAFP-pNA. (Substrate was dissolved in TFE that contained 460mM LiCl to a concentration of 3 mM)5. Record the increase in A405 nm for 30 minutes at 25°C. |
| Storage : |
Can be stored at +4°C short term (1-2 weeks). For long term storage, aliquot and store at -20°C or -70°C. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing cycles. |
