PCSK7 blocking peptide

PCSK7 Antibody (C-term) Blocking peptide

Gene Names
PCSK7; LPC; PC7; PC8; SPC7
Synonyms
PCSK7; PCSK7 Antibody (C-term) Blocking peptide; Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 7; 3421-; Lymphoma proprotein convertase; Prohormone convertase 7; Proprotein convertase 7; PC7; Proprotein convertase 8; PC8; hPC8; Subtilisin/kexin-like protease PC7; LPC; SPC7; PCSK7 blocking peptide
Ordering
Specificity
The synthetic peptide sequence used to generate the antibody was selected from the C-term region of PCSK7. A 10 to 100 fold molar excess to antibody is recommended. Precise conditions should be optimized for a particular assay.
Form/Format
Synthetic peptide was lyophilized with 100% acetonitrile and is supplied as a powder. Reconstitute with 0.1 ml DI water for a final concentration of 1 mg/ml.
Sequence Length
785
Cellular Location
Golgi apparatus, trans-Golgi network membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. Note: Seems to be localized intracellularly to the trans Golgi network.
Tissue Location
Expressed in spleen, thymus, prostate, testis, ovary, small intestine, colon and peripheral blood leukocyte
Preparation and Storage
Maintain refrigerated at 2-8 degree C for up to 6 months. For long term storage store at -20 degree C.

NCBI Description

This gene encodes a member of the subtilisin-like proprotein convertase family, which includes proteases that process protein and peptide precursors trafficking through regulated or constitutive branches of the secretory pathway. It encodes a type 1 membrane bound protease that is expressed in many tissues, including neuroendocrine, liver, gut, and brain. The encoded protein undergoes an initial autocatalytic processing event in the ER and then sorts to the trans-Golgi network through endosomes where a second autocatalytic event takes place and the catalytic activity is acquired. This gene encodes one of the seven basic amino acid-specific members which cleave their substrates at single or paired basic residues. It can process proalbumin and is thought to be responsible for the activation of HIV envelope glycoproteins gp160 and gp140. This gene has been implicated in the transcriptional regulation of housekeeping genes and plays a role in the regulation of iron metabolism. A t(11;14)(q23;q32) chromosome translocation associated with B-cell lymphoma occurs between this gene and its inverted counterpart. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2014]

Product Notes

The PCSK7 pcsk7 (Catalog #AAA9220409) is a Blocking Peptide and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "PCSK7, Blocking Peptide" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
