PSMA Protein, Mouse (HEK293, Fc)

The PSMA protein is a multifunctional enzyme with folate hydrolase and NAALADase activities and a preference for tri-alpha-glutamic acid peptides. It absorbs folate in the intestines, aids in important metabolic processes, and modulates excitatory neurotransmission in the brain by hydrolyzing NAAG to release glutamate. PSMA, Mouse (HEK293, Fc) is the recombinant mouse-derived PSMA protein, expressed by HEK293, with C-mFc labeled tag.

Biological Activity

Description

The PSMA protein is a multifunctional enzyme with folate hydrolase and NAALADase activities and a preference for tri-alpha-glutamic acid peptides. It absorbs folate in the intestines, aids in important metabolic processes, and modulates excitatory neurotransmission in the brain by hydrolyzing NAAG to release glutamate. PSMA, Mouse (HEK293, Fc) is the recombinant mouse-derived PSMA protein, expressed by HEK293, with C-mFc labeled tag.

Background

PSMA, a multifunctional enzyme, possesses both folate hydrolase and N-acetylated-alpha-linked-acidic dipeptidase (NAALADase) activities, with 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. Additionally, it demonstrates dipeptidyl-peptidase IV type activity and efficiently cleaves Gly-Pro-AMC in vitro, showcasing its versatile enzymatic functions.

Appearance

Lyophilized powder.

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.
