Related Product Information for anti-PRSS8 antibody
Prostasin, a serine protease first identified in prostate tissue, activates epithelial sodium channels in a variety of tissues. Though typically a membrane-anchored protein, free prostasin is also found in physiologic fluids and tissue culture media, indicating a mechanism for secretion from the cells as well. Aprotinin and other protease inhibitors suppress the channel-activating capacity of prostasin, while aldosterone increases prostasin expression and stimulates sodium uptake. In addition, DNA methylation negatively correlates with prostasin expression in cancer cells, while enforced reexpression decreases invasiveness as well as metastatic potential, implying that prostasin activity reflects epithelial cell physiology.

NCBI Description

This gene encodes a member of the peptidase S1 or chymotrypsin family of serine proteases. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate light and heavy chains that associate via a disulfide bond to form the heterodimeric enzyme. This enzyme is highly expressed in prostate epithelia and is one of several proteolytic enzymes found in seminal fluid. This protease exhibits trypsin-like substrate specificity, cleaving protein substrates at the carboxyl terminus of lysine or arginine residues. The encoded protease partially mediates proteolytic activation of the epithelial sodium channel, a regulator of sodium balance, and may also play a role in epithelial barrier formation.

Uniprot Description

PRSS8: Possesses a trypsin-like cleavage specificity with a preference for poly-basic substrates. Stimulates epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) activity through activating cleavage of the gamma subunits (SCNN1G). Belongs to the peptidase S1 family.

Product Notes

The PRSS8 prss8 (Catalog #AAA3006900) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The PRSS8 Polyclonal Antibody reacts with Human, Mouse, Rat and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's PRSS8 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB). WB: 1:500-1:1000. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the PRSS8 prss8 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 "PRSS8, Polyclonal Antibody" 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.
