Calpain 3 (CAPN3) Active Protein | CAPN3 active protein
Active Calpain 3 (CAPN3)
The thermal stability is described by the loss rate. The loss rate was determined by accelerated thermal degradation test, that is, incubate the protein at 37 degree C for 48h, and no obvious degradation and precipitation were observed. The loss rate is less than 5% within the expiration date under appropriate storage condition.
Activity Data
(Figure. The binding activity of CAPN3 with TTN.Calpain 3 is a calcium-dependent cysteine protease mainly expressed in skeletal muscle. In humans, calpain 3 is encoded by the CAPN3 gene. This gene encodes a muscle-specific member of the calpain large subunit family that specifically binds to titin. Mutations in this gene are associated with limb-girdle muscular dystrophies type 2A. Alternate promoters and alternative splicing result in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms and some variants are ubiquitously expressed. Besides, Titin (TTN) has been identified as an interactor of CAPN3, thus a binding ELISA assay was conducted to detect the interaction of recombinant human CAPN3 and recombinant human TTN. Briefly, CAPN3 were diluted serially in PBS with 0.01% BSA (pH 7.4). Duplicate samples of 100uL were then transferred to TTN-coated microtiter wells and incubated for 2h at 37 degree C. Wells were washed with PBST and incubated for 1h with anti-CAPN3 pAb, then aspirated and washed 3 times. After incubation with HRP labelled secondary antibody, wells were aspirated and washed 3 times. With the addition of substrate solution, wells were incubated 15-25 minutes at 37 degree C. Finally, add 50uL stop solution to the wells and read at 450nm immediately. The binding activity of CAPN3 and TTN was shown in Figure 1, and this effect was in a dose dependent manner.)

NCBI Description
Calpain, a heterodimer consisting of a large and a small subunit, is a major intracellular protease, although its function has not been well established. This gene encodes a muscle-specific member of the calpain large subunit family that specifically binds to titin. Mutations in this gene are associated with limb-girdle muscular dystrophies type 2A. Alternate promoters and alternative splicing result in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms and some variants are ubiquitously expressed. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Uniprot Description
CAPN3: Calcium-regulated non-lysosomal thiol-protease. Defects in CAPN3 are the cause of limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2A (LGMD2A). LGMD2A is an autosomal recessive degenerative myopathy characterized by progressive symmetrical atrophy and weakness of the proximal limb muscles and elevated serum creatine kinase. The symptoms usually begin during the first two decades of life, and the disease gradually worsens, often resulting in loss of walking ability 10 or 20 years after onset. Belongs to the peptidase C2 family. 5 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.
