Granzyme B/GZMB Protein, Mouse (HEK293)

Granzyme B/GZMB Protein, Mouse (HEK293) plays essential roles in apoptosis and is involved in inducing inflammation by stimulating cytokine release and is also involved in extracellular matrix remodeling.

Granzyme B plays essential roles in mammalian apoptosis^[1]. Granzyme B is a serine protease most commonly found in the granules of cytotoxic lymphocytes (CTLs), natural killer cells (NK cells) and cytotoxic T cells. It is secreted by these cells along with the pore forming protein perforin to mediate apoptosis in target cells. Granzyme B has shown to be involved in inducing inflammation by stimulating cytokine release and is also involved in extracellular matrix remodeling^[2].

Measured by its ability to cleave a peptide substrate, t-Butyloxycaronyl-Ala-Ala-Asp-ThioBenzyl ester (Boc-AAD-SBzl), in the presence of 5,5'-Dithio-bis (2-nitrobenzoic acid) (DTNB). The specific activity is 4242 pmol/min/µg as measured under the described conditions.

Approximately 34.35 kDa

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

Lyophilized powder.

Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution of 20 mM PB, 150 mM NaCl, 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.
