Host
Yeast
Purity/Purification
Greater than 99% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
Form/Format
Sterile filtered lyophilized powder.
The Proteinase-K was lyophilized without any additives.
Sequence Length
384
Solubility
It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Proteinase-K in 20mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.4~8.0), 1mM CaCl2, 50% glycerol not less than 100 ug/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.
Biological Activity
34 Units/mg protein.One unit is defined as the amount of enzyme that will hydrolyze urea-denatured hemoglobin to produce color equivalent to 1.0 mol tyrosine per min at 37 degree C, pH 7.5 (color by Folin-Ciocalteu reagent).
Preparation and Storage
Although stable at room temp for 1 week, should be stored desiccated below -18 degree C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
Related Product Information for PROK active protein
Description: Recombinant Tritirachium album Proteinase-K expressed in yeast containing 285 amino acids having a Mw of 29.3 kDa is purified by standard chromatography techniques.
Introduction: The Proteinase K enzyme is a member of the Peptidase family S8. Proteinase K is a broad-spectrum serine protease. Proteinase K is capable of digesting hair (keratin), henceforth, the name "Proteinase K". Proteinase K is activated by calcium, the enzyme digests proteins especially after hydrophobic amino acids (aliphatic, aromatic and other hydrophobic amino acids). Proteinase K is frequently utilized in molecular biology to digest protein and remove contamination from preparations of nucleic acid. Addition of Proteinase K to nucleic acid preparations rapidly inactivates nucleases which may otherwise degrade the DNA or RNA during purification. Proteinase K is greatly fitting to this application as the enzyme is active in the presence of chemicals which denature proteins, such as SDS and urea, chelating agents such as EDTA, sulfhydryl reagents, as well as trypsin or chymotrypsin inhibitors. Proteinase K is utilized for the destruction of proteins in cell lysates (tissue, cell culture cells) and for the release of nucleic acids, given that it quite effectively inactivates DNases and RNases.

Product Notes

The PROK prok (Catalog #AAA146786) is an Active Protein produced from Yeast 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 "Tritirachium album Proteinase-K, 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.
