Recombinant Human FK506 Binding Protein 2, 13kDa, His-tagged

• Cat.No.: FKBP2-2033H
• Product Overview: Recombinant human FKBP2 protein was expressed in E.coli and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques. MW=13.4 kDa (122aa).

Specification

• Species: Human
• Source: E.coli
• Tag: His
• Description: FKBP2 is peptidyl proline isomerase enzyme and a member of the immunophilin protein family. This protein is predominantly expressed in thymus and T cells and plays a role in immunoregulation and basic cellular processes involving protein folding and trafficking. It is a cis-trans prolyl isomerase that binds the immunosuppressants FK506 and rapamycin. FKBP2 is thought to function as an ER chaperone and may also act as a component of membrane cytoskeletal scaffolds.

• Purity: > 90% by SDS–PAGE.
• Concentration: 1 mg/ml (determined by Bradford assay).
• Form: Liquid. In 20mM Tris buffer(pH 8.0) containing 10% glycerol, 1mM DTT.
• Biological activity: Specific activity is > 270 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 pH8.0 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 FKBP2 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.
