SARS-CoV-2 3C-like Proteinase (N-His)

SARS-CoV-2 3C-like Proteinase (His), His, expressed in E.coli, mediates viral polyprotein maturation and multiple cleavages of host proteins to modulate viral translation and transcription with a His tag at the N-terminus^[1].

The 3C protease has been regarded as a valid target due to its structural similarity among different picornaviruses and minimal sequence similarity with host proteins; therefore, the development of potent inhibitors against the 3C protease as an antiviral drug is ongoing. Duck hepatitis A virus (DHAV) belongs to the Picornavidea family and is a major threat to the poultry industry^[1].

Measured by its ability to cleave a fluorogenic peptide substrate, Dabcyl- KTSAVLQSGFRKME-Edans (Ssynthetic). The specific activity is >13000 pmol/min/mg.

Approximately 34 kDa

≥ 95%, as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE.

Lyophilized powder.

Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4, 10% trehalose, 0.02% Tween 80.

<1 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.

It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/mL in ddH₂O.

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.
