Description

PreScission protease is a cysteine protease derived from human rhinovirus - HRV3C Protease. rPP is a fusion protein of glutathione S-transferase (GST) and human rhinovirus (HRV) type 14 3C protease.

One unit is defined as the amount of enzyme needed to cleave 100 ug of fusion protein in 16 hours to 90 % completion at 5 °C in a buffer containing 50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.0, 150 mM NaCl, 1 mM EDTA, and 1 mM DTT.

Source: E. coli

Purity

Peptide affinity purified

Endotoxin Level

Less than 0.1 EU/ug of PreScission Protease as determined by LAL method.

Predicted Molecular Mass

43 kDa.
Disclaimer note: The observed molecular weight of the protein may vary from the listed predicted molecular weight due to post translational modifications, post translation cleavages, relative charges, and other experimental factors.

Activity

The protease specifically recognizes a subset of sequences which include the core amino acid sequence Leu-Phe-Gln/Gly-Pro cleaving between the Gln and Gly residues.

Application Notes

During cleavage reactions, it is recommended that samples be removed at various time points and analyzed by SDS-PAGE to estimate the yield, purity, and extent of digestion. The amount of PreScission Protease, temperature and length of incubation required for complete digestion of a given GST fusion partner may vary depending on the fusion partner. It works most effective at 4C but can digest substrates at room temperature. Optimal conditions for each fusion should be determined in pilot experiments. Digestion may be improved by adding TritonTM X-100, TweenTM 20 or NonidetTM P40 to a concentration of 0.01 %. Concentrations of these detergents up to 1 % do not inhibit PreScission Protease.

Specificity

The protease specifically recognizes a subset of sequences which include the core amino acid sequence Leu-Phe-Gln/Gly-Pro cleaving between the Gln and Gly residues. Substrate recognition and cleavage are likely to be dependent not only upon primary structural signals, but also upon the secondary and tertiary structures of the fusion protein as well.
