Background

PLA2G7 protein, a lipoprotein-associated calcium-independent phospholipase A2, plays a pivotal role in phospholipid catabolism during inflammatory and oxidative stress responses. Operating at the lipid-aqueous interface, it hydrolyzes the ester bond of fatty acyl groups at the sn-2 position of phospholipids, with a specific preference for those carrying short-chain fatty acyl groups. Additionally, PLA2G7 can target phospholipids with long fatty acyl chains if they bear oxidized functional groups. The enzyme's versatility extends to inactivating platelet-activating factor (PAF), a potent pro-inflammatory signaling lipid, and hydrolyzing oxidatively truncated phospholipids, preventing their accumulation and uncontrolled pro-inflammatory effects. When associated with high-density lipoprotein (HDL) particles, PLA2G7 contributes to the hydrolysis of phospholipids containing long-chain fatty acyl hydroperoxides, safeguarding against potential oxylipin accumulation in the vascular wall. Furthermore, PLA2G7 catalyzes the release of F2-isoprostanes, serving as lipid biomarkers for cellular oxidative damage.

Help & FAQs
  • How should lyophilized recombinant proteins be reconstituted and stored?

    1. Before opening the cap, centrifuge the vial at 13000 rpm for 20-30 seconds. This step will ensure that any lyophilized powder that may have adhered to the cap or walls is collected at the bottom of the vial, minimizing the risk of product loss. 2. Taking 10 μg as an example, first add 20 μL of reconstituted solution provided by MCE and use a pipette to gently resuspend the lyophilized protein until it is fully dissolved.. (For most proteins, the reconstitution solution we provide is sterile water. If a diluent other than water is required, it will be indicated in the product's Certificate of Analysis (COA).). 3. Add an additional 80 μL of buffer/culture medium containing carrier protein (either 0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS, or 5% trehalose), and then use a pipette to gently mix until uniform. The final concentration is should not be lower than 100 μg/mL. 4. Aliquot at least 20 μL per tube. 5. After aliquoting, store it frozen at a temperature ranging from -20ºC to -80ºC, and it can be preserved for 3 to 6 months.

  • How should solution-form recombinant proteins be stored?

    1. The product can be stored in its original form and diluted as needed upon use. 2. Alternatively, dilute with a buffer/culture medium containing a carrier protein (either 0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS, or 5% alginate), mix well by pipetting, and ensure that

  • Why is it necessary to add carrier proteins?

    Carrier proteins are commonly added to enhance the stability of recombinant proteins, preventing them from adhering to the walls of the container during freezing or thawing processes. Plastic tubes have a certain adsorptive capacity for proteins, which may lead to difficulty in separating the protein from the tube walls, resulting in a decrease in the actual concentration of the protein in the solution and thus affecting its activity. To minimize such losses, it is recommended to add a commonly used carrier protein solution prior to the long-term storage of recombinant protein products.

  • Carrier protein types and options?

    In cases where the carrier protein is not expected to influence the experimental outcomes, an appropriate carrier protein, such as 0.1% BSA (Bovine Serum Albumin), 5% HSA (Human Serum Albumin), 10% FBS (Fetal Bovine Serum), or 5% trehalose, can be incorpo
