MP Biomedicals™ Protease (S. Aureus) V.8

Description

• Protease V.8 specifically cleaves peptide bonds on the COOH terminal side of either aspartic or glutamic acids In the presence of ammonium, the specificity is limited to glutamic sites Used in a study to investigate immobilized residue-specific endoproteinases for protein sequencing Protease V8 was also used in a study to assess enzymatic cleaning of inorganic ultrafiltration membranes used for whey protein fractionation Provides: Robust activity, greater than 915 units/mg protein Specific cleavage for glutamic acid in ammonium buffer Selective digestion at both glutamic and aspartic acid residues in phosphate buffer at pH 7.8 Cleavage activity remains in the presence of many denaturing agent, such as SDS, urea and guanidine-HCl Lyophilized format for longer stability and easier storage
