PLA2G7 Protein, Mouse (HEK293, His)

Customer Review

Based on 1 Customer Validation

The PLA2G7 protein is a lipoprotein-associated calcium-independent phospholipase A2 that plays a key role in phospholipid catabolism during inflammation and oxidative stress responses.It acts at the lipid-water interface and hydrolyzes the ester bond of the fatty acyl group at the sn-2 position, with particular preference for short-chain fatty acyl groups. PLA2G7 Protein, Mouse (HEK293, His) is the recombinant mouse-derived PLA2G7 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-6*His labeled tag.

Description

The PLA2G7 protein is a lipoprotein-associated calcium-independent phospholipase A2 that plays a key role in phospholipid catabolism during inflammation and oxidative stress responses.It acts at the lipid-water interface and hydrolyzes the ester bond of the fatty acyl group at the sn-2 position, with particular preference for short-chain fatty acyl groups. PLA2G7 Protein, Mouse (HEK293, His) is the recombinant mouse-derived PLA2G7 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-6*His labeled tag.

Background

PLA2G7 protein, a lipoprotein-associated calcium-independent phospholipase A2, plays a pivotal role in phospholipid catabolism during inflammatory and oxidative stress responses. Operating at the lipid-aqueous interface, it hydrolyzes the ester bond of fatty acyl groups at the sn-2 position of phospholipids, with a specific preference for those carrying short-chain fatty acyl groups. Additionally, PLA2G7 can target phospholipids with long fatty acyl chains if they bear oxidized functional groups. The enzyme's versatility extends to inactivating platelet-activating factor (PAF), a potent pro-inflammatory signaling lipid, and hydrolyzing oxidatively truncated phospholipids, preventing their accumulation and uncontrolled pro-inflammatory effects. When associated with high-density lipoprotein (HDL) particles, PLA2G7 contributes to the hydrolysis of phospholipids containing long-chain fatty acyl hydroperoxides, safeguarding against potential oxylipin accumulation in the vascular wall. Furthermore, PLA2G7 catalyzes the release of F2-isoprostanes, serving as lipid biomarkers for cellular oxidative damage.

Verified Bioactivity

Measured by its ability to cleave a colorimetric peptide substrate of 2-Thio-PAF (HY-101263), in the presence of 5,5’Dithio-bis(2-nitrobenzoic acid) (HY-15915) that incubate at room temperature in kinetic mode for 5 minutes. The specific activity is > 9000 pmol/min/μg.

Product Properties

Appearance

Lyophilized powder

Formulation

Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution of 20 mM PB, 150 mM NaCl, 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.
