Description

Pepsinogen C/PGC protein hydrolyzes various proteins, playing a crucial role in digestion by breaking them down into smaller peptides. Its proficiency in protein hydrolysis contributes to the initial stages of digestion, making it vital in the overall digestive cascade. Pepsinogen C/PGC Protein, Human (His) is the recombinant human-derived Pepsinogen C/PGC protein, expressed by E. coli , with N-His labeled tag.

Background

Pepsinogen C, also known as PGC protein, serves as a key enzyme with the ability to hydrolyze a diverse range of proteins. This enzymatic activity underscores its crucial role in the digestive process, as it participates in breaking down proteins into smaller peptides. PGC's proficiency in protein hydrolysis contributes significantly to the initial stages of digestion, playing a vital role in the overall digestive cascade.

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.

Shipping
