PSMA Protein, Human (HEK293, His)
Based on 1 Customer Validation
PSMA protein, with a preference for tri-alpha-glutamate peptides, acts as a folate hydrolase and NAALADase enzyme. It uptakes folate in the intestines, modulates excitatory neurotransmission by hydrolyzing NAAG to release glutamate in the brain, and exhibits dipeptidyl-peptidase IV type activity by cleaving Gly-Pro-AMC in vitro. PSMA Protein, Human (HEK293, His) is the recombinant human-derived PSMA protein, expressed by HEK293 , with N-6*His labeled tag.

Background
PSMA, a multifaceted enzyme, showcases both folate hydrolase and N-acetylated-alpha-linked-acidic dipeptidase (NAALADase) activities, displaying a notable preference for tri-alpha-glutamate peptides. It plays a crucial role in the intestinal uptake of folate, contributing to essential metabolic processes. Within the brain, PSMA acts as a modulator of excitatory neurotransmission by hydrolyzing the neuropeptide N-acetylaspartylglutamate (NAAG), leading to the release of glutamate. Notably, PSMA's involvement in prostate tumor progression highlights its potential significance in cancer biology. Additionally, the enzyme exhibits dipeptidyl-peptidase IV type activity and effectively cleaves Gly-Pro-AMC in vitro, further emphasizing its diverse enzymatic functions.
Verified Bioactivity
1.Measured by its ability to hydrolyze the substrate N-acetyl-L-Asp-L-Glu into N-acetyl-L-Asp and L-Glu. The L-Glu product is measured by fluorescence after its derivatization by ortho-phthaldialdehyde. The specific activity is 558.1 pmol/min/μg, as measured under the described conditions.
2.Measured by its ability to hydrolyze 10 µM substrate Spaglumic Acid (HY-100921) into N-acetyl-L-Asp and L- Glu. The L-Glu product is measured by fluorescence after its derivatization by ortho-phthaldialdehyde. that incubate at 37°C for 60 minutes.The specific activity is 550-682 pmol/min/μg.
