Species : |
Bacillus anthracis |
Source : |

Tag : |
Non |
Protein Length : |
30-764 a.a. |
Description : |
One of the three proteins composing the anthrax toxin, the agent which infects many mammalian species and that may cause death. PA binds to a receptor (ATR) in sensitive eukaryotic cells, thereby facilitating the translocation of the enzymatic toxin components, edema factor and lethal factor, across the target cell membrane. PA associated with LF causes death when injected, PA associated with EF produces edema. PA induces immunity to infection with anthrax. |
Predicted N Terminal : |
Glu 30 |
Form : |
Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4. |
Bio-activity : |
Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. |
Molecular Mass : |
The recombinant mature bacillus anthrax protein antigen consists of 735 amino acids and has a calculated molecular mass of 82.7 KD. |
Endotoxin : |
<1.0EU/ug, LAL method |
Purity : |
>95% (SDS-PAGE) |
Stability : |
Samples are stable for up to twelve months from date of receipt at -70ºC. |
Storage : |
Store it under sterile conditions at -20ºC~-70ºC. It is recommended that the protein be aliquoted for optimal storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. |
Reconstitution : |
It is recommended that sterile water be added to the vial to prepare a stock solution of 0.2 ug/ul. Centrifuge the vial at 4℃ before opening to recover the entire contents. |
