Description

The PRDX5 protein (or Peroxiredoxin-5) plays a critical role as a thiol-specific peroxidase that reduces hydrogen peroxide and organic hydroperoxides. This enzyme activity is essential for cells to defend against oxidative stress and detoxify peroxides. PRDX5/Peroxiredoxin-5 Protein, Human (HEK293, His) is the recombinant human-derived PRDX5/Peroxiredoxin-5 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with N-6*His labeled tag. The total length of PRDX5/Peroxiredoxin-5 Protein, Human (HEK293, His) is 162 a.a., with molecular weight of ~17.0 kDa.

Background

PRDX5, also known as Peroxiredoxin-5, serves as a thiol-specific peroxidase, facilitating the reduction of hydrogen peroxide and organic hydroperoxides to water and alcohols, respectively. This enzymatic activity is integral to the cellular defense against oxidative stress, functioning as a protective mechanism by detoxifying peroxides. Beyond its role in peroxide reduction, PRDX5 acts as a sensor for hydrogen peroxide-mediated signaling events, highlighting its involvement in cellular signaling pathways associated with oxidative stress responses. The multifaceted functions of PRDX5 underscore its significance in maintaining cellular homeostasis and orchestrating adaptive responses to oxidative challenges.

Molecular Weight

Approximately 17.0 kDa

Purity

Greater than 95% as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE.

Appearance

Lyophilized powder.

Formulation

Lyophilized from a 0.2 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. 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

Room temperature in continental US;may vary elsewhere.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.

  • Specific Activity Calculator

The reconstitution calculator equation

Volume (to add to vial) = Mass (in vial) ÷ Desired Reconstitution Concentration

Volume (to add to vial) = Mass (in vial) ÷ Desired Reconstitution Concentration
= ÷

The dilution calculator equation

Concentration (start) × Volume (start) = Concentration (final) × Volume (final)

This equation is commonly abbreviated as: C1V1 = C2V2

Concentration (start) × Volume (start) = Concentration (final) × Volume (final)
× = ×

The specific activity calculator equation

Specific Activity (Unit/mg) = 106 ÷ Biological Activity (ED50)

Specific Activity (Unit/mg) = 106 ÷ Biological Activity (ED50)
Unit/mg = 106 ÷ ng/mL
