GGT5 Protein, Human (HEK293, His)

The GGT5 protein is an important glycosaminoglycan lyase that selectively cleaves heparin and heparan sulfate using a β-elimination mechanism. It targets specific linkages, such as alpha-D-GlcNp2S6S(1->4) alpha-L-IdoAp2S in heparin and alpha-D-GlcNp2Ac(or 2S)6OH(1->4)beta- in heparan sulfate D-GlcAp. GGT5 Protein, Human (HEK293, His) is the recombinant human-derived GGT5 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with N-His labeled tag. The total length of GGT5 Protein, Human (HEK293, His) is 557 a.a., with molecular weight of ~23-27 & 48-61.8 KDa.

Heparinase II is a glycosaminoglycan-cleaving protein that utilizes a beta-elimination mechanism to cleave both heparin and heparan sulfate. Specifically, it targets heparin at the alpha-D-GlcNp2S6S(1->4) alpha-L-IdoAp2S linkage and heparan sulfate at the alpha-D-GlcNp2Ac(or 2S)6OH(1->4)beta-D-GlcAp linkage. This enzymatic activity contributes to the regulation of glycosaminoglycan composition and function, impacting cellular processes influenced by these molecules. The precise cleavage sites underscore the specificity of Heparinase II in modifying the structure of heparin and heparan sulfate, implicating its role in diverse physiological and pathological contexts where these glycosaminoglycans are involved.

Measured by its ability to hydrolyze glutathione to Glu and Cys-Gly. The specific activity is 881.5814 pmol/min/µg, as measured under the described conditions.

  Greater than 95% as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE.

Lyophilized powder

Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4.

<1 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.

It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/mL in ddH₂O. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS or 5% Trehalose).

Stored at -20°C for 2 years. After reconstitution, it is stable at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for longer (with carrier protein). It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage.

Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere.
