Introduction
Kallikrein-3 or KLK3 is a serine proteases subgroup, enzymes can cleave peptide bonds. KLK3 is found in the prostate and may be hold accountable to the regulation of semen liquefaction via seminogelin hydrolysis. The protein is expressed in low concentrations in men with healthy prostates serum. When elevated quantities are found it may show prostate cancer or different prostate disorders such as prostatitis and benign prostatic hyperplasia.
Description
KLK3 Human Recombinant produced in HEK cells is a single, glycosylated, polypeptide chain (18-261 a.a) containing a total of 250 amino acids, having a molecular mass of 27.6kDa.
KLK3 is fused to a 6 amino acid His-tag at C-terminus,and is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Source
HEK293 Cells.
Physical Appearance
Formulation
The KLK3 solution (0.25mg/ml) contains 10% Glycerol and Phosphate-Buffered Saline (pH 7.4).
Stability
For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).
Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles.
Purity
Greater than 95.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
Biological Activity
Specific activity is > 250pmol/min/ug. Defined by the amount of enzyme that cleaves 1pmole of Succinyl-ArgPro-Tyr-p-Nitroanilide to Succinyl-Arg-Pro-Tyr and p-Nitroanilide per minute at pH 7.5 at 37˚C.
