Background

The Carboxypeptidase A2/CPA2 Protein is a pivotal member of the peptidase M14 family, signifying its essential role as a peptidase enzyme. As part of this enzyme family, CPA2 likely shares conserved structural and functional features with related proteins, implicating its involvement in the hydrolysis of peptide bonds. Its membership in the peptidase M14 family underscores its significance in cellular processes related to the cleavage of peptides and the regulation of various biological pathways. The study of CPA2 provides insights into its specific enzymatic functions within the context of the peptidase M14 family, offering potential applications in therapeutic interventions and a deeper understanding of its broader impact on cellular processes involved in peptide metabolism. Further exploration of CPA2's role promises to enhance our comprehension of its contributions to normal physiology and pathological conditions.

Verified Bioactivity

Measured by its ability to cleave the 200 μM colorimetric peptide substrate Ac-Phe-Thiaphe-OH, in the presence of 200 μM 5,5’Dithio-bis (2-nitrobenzoic acid) (DTNB) that incubate at room temperature for 5 minutes. The specific activity is 4697.712 pmol/min/µg. (Activation description: The proenzyme needs to be activated by Trypsin for an activated form.)

Product Properties

Appearance

Lyophilized powder.

Formulation

Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4.

Endotoxin Level

<1 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.

Reconstitution

It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/mL in ddH2O. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS or 5% Trehalose).

Storage & Stability

Stored at -20°C for 2 years from date of receipt. After reconstitution, it is stable at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for longer (with carrier protein). It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage.
