Human SerpinI2 Protein (His Tag)

MEPI,PANCPIN,PI14,TSA2004

Catalog Number P11008-H08H
Organism Species Human
Host Human Cells
Synonyms MEPI,PANCPIN,PI14,TSA2004
Molecular Weight The recombinant human SERPINI2 consists of 398 amino acids and predictes a molecular mass of 45.5 kDa. In SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions, the apparent molecular mass of rhSERPINI2 is approximately 45-55 kDa due to glycosylation.
predicted N Ser 19
SDS-PAGE
Purity > 90 % as determined by SDS-PAGE
Protein Construction A DNA sequence encoding the human SERPINI2 (NP_006208.1) (Met 1-Leu 405) was expressed, with a polyhistidine tag at the C-terminus.
Bio-activity
Research Area Cardiovascular |Blood |Fibrinolysis / Thrombolysis
Formulation Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4
1. Normally 5 % - 8 % trehalose, mannitol and 0.01% Tween80 are added as protectants before lyophilization. Specific concentrations are included in the hardcopy of COA.
Background Serpins are the largest and most diverse family of serine protease inhibitors which are involved in a number of fundamental biological processes such as blood coagulation, complement activation, fibrinolysis, angiogenesis, inflammation and tumor suppression and are expressed in a cell-specific manner. Serpins are a group of proteins with similar structures that were first identified as a set of proteins able to inhibit proteases. The acronym serpin was originally coined because many serpins inhibit chymotrypsin-like serine proteases (serine protease inhibitors). Over 1000 serpins have been identified.
Serpin-I2, also known as myoepithelium-derived serine protease inhibitor, Pancreas-specific protein TSA2004, Peptidase inhibitor 14, PI14, SERPINI2 and MEPI, is a secreted protein which belongs to the serpin family. It is expressed in pancreas and adipose tissues. SERPINI2 deficiency directly results in the acinar cell apoptosis and malabsorption.
