Prostasin/PRSS8 Protein, Human (HEK293, His)
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Prostasin/PRSS8, with trypsin-like cleavage specificity, crucially activates the epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) by cleaving its gamma subunits (SCNN1G). This protein forms a heterodimeric complex, consisting of light and heavy chains connected by a disulfide bond. Prostasin/PRSS8 Protein, Human (HEK293, His) is the recombinant human-derived Prostasin/PRSS8 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-His labeled tag.
- Species: Human
- Source: HEK293
-
Storage: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.

Description
Prostasin/PRSS8, with trypsin-like cleavage specificity, crucially activates the epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) by cleaving its gamma subunits (SCNN1G). This protein forms a heterodimeric complex, consisting of light and heavy chains connected by a disulfide bond. Prostasin/PRSS8 Protein, Human (HEK293, His) is the recombinant human-derived Prostasin/PRSS8 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-His labeled tag.
Background
Prostasin/PRSS8 protein exhibits trypsin-like cleavage specificity, with a particular affinity for poly-basic substrates. It plays a crucial role in stimulating the activity of the epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) by activating the cleavage of its gamma subunits (SCNN1G). Structurally, it is composed of two chains, a light and a heavy chain, which are held together by a disulfide bond, forming a heterodimeric complex.
Verified Bioactivity
Measured by its ability to cleave the fluorogenic peptide substrate Boc-QAR-AMC. The specific activity is 121.6525 pmol/min/µg, as measured under the described conditions.

Product Properties
Lyophilized powder
Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4.
<1 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.
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).
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.
Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere.
