Active Recombinant Human MMP8, His tagged

• Cat.No.: MMP8-648H
• Product Overview: Recombinant Human MMP8 (NP_002415.1) (Met 1-Gly 467), fused with a polyhistidine tag at the C-terminus, was produced in Human Cell.

Specification

• Source: HEK293
• Species: Human
• Tag: His
• Form: Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4.
  Normally 5 % - 8 % trehalose, mannitol and 0.01% Tween80 are added as protectants before lyophilization.
• Bio-activity: Measured by its ability to cleave the fluorogenic peptide substrate, Mca-PLGL-Dpa-AR-NH2. The specific activity is > 250 pmoles/min/μg .(Activation description: The proenzyme needs to be activated by APMA for an activated form)
• Molecular Mass: The recombinant human MMP8 consists of 458 amino acids after removal of the signal peptide and has a predicted molecular mass of 52.6 kDa. In SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions, the apparent molecular mass of rhMMP8 is approximately 65-75 kDa due to glycosylation.
• Protein Length: Met 1-Gly 467
• Endotoxin: < 1.0 EU per μg protein as determined by the LAL method.
• Purity: > 90 % as determined by SDS-PAGE
• Storage: Samples are stable for up to twelve months from date of receipt at -20°C to -80°C
  Store it under sterile conditions at -20°C to -80°C. 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.
