Biological Activity

Description

Legumain Protein, Human (HEK293, N-His) is the recombinant human-derived Legumain protein, expressed by HEK293, with N-His tag.

Background

Legumain protein exhibits a strict specificity for the hydrolysis of asparaginyl bonds. Additionally, it demonstrates the ability to cleave aspartyl bonds slowly, particularly in acidic conditions, further expanding its enzymatic versatility. Functionally, Legumain is integral to the processing of proteins for MHC class II antigen presentation within the lysosomal/endosomal system. It also plays a crucial role in MHC class I antigen presentation in cross-presenting dendritic cells by facilitating the cleavage and maturation of Perforin-2 (MPEG1), thereby promoting antigen translocation in the cytosol, as indicated by recent research findings. Moreover, Legumain is essential for normal lysosomal protein degradation in renal proximal tubules and is required for the degradation of internalized EGFR, highlighting its importance in cellular processes and the regulation of cell proliferation.

Verified Bioactivity

Measured by its ability to cleave the fluorogenic peptide substrate Z-Ala-Ala-Asn-AMC (HY-136626) that incubate at room temperature in kinetic mode for 5 minutes. The specific activity is 194.97 pmol/min/µg. (Activation description: The proenzyme needs to be activated by Activation Buffer for an activated form.)
