Active Arginase (ARG)
Activity Data
(Arginase (Arg) is an enzyme that catalyzes the degradation of arginine to produce urea and omithine, which is crucial in the urea cycle. In most mammals, two isozymes of this enzyme exist; the first, Arginase I, functions in the urea cycle, and is located primarily in the cytoplasm of the liver. The second isozyme, Arginase II, has been implicated in the regulation of the arginine/ornithine concentrations in the cell. Besides, Ubiquitin Carboxyl Terminal Hydrolase L5 (UCHL5) has been identified as an interactor of Arg, thus a binding ELISA assay was conducted to detect the interaction of recombinant mouse Arg and recombinant mouse UCHL5. Briefly, Arg were diluted serially in PBS, with 0.01% BSA (pH 7.4). Duplicate samples of 100uL were then transferred to UCHL5-coated microtiter wells and incubated for 2h at 37 degree C. Wells were washed with PBST and incubated for 1h with anti-Arg 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 of Arg and UCHL5 was shown in Figure 1, and this effect was in a dose dependent manner.)

Product Notes
The ARG arg1 (Catalog #AAA2097288) is an Active Protein produced from E Coli and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Active Arginase (ARG) reacts with Mouse and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's Arginase (ARG) can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Cell culture, Activity Assays. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the ARG arg1 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Arginase (ARG), Active Protein" 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.Precautions
