Alpha-1-antichymotrypsin, ACT, Cell growth-inhibiting gene 24/25 protein, SERPINA3, AACT, A1ACT, GIG24, GIG25, MGC88254.
Alpha 1 ACT is an early-stage acute-phase plasma protein and a serpin that preferentially inactivates chymotrypsin, cathepsin G, and chymase. Alpha-1- ACT, a serine protease inhibitor, is tightly associated with amyloid plaques in Alzheimer's disease (AD) and in normal aged human and monkey brain. Regulation of the serine proteases and serine protease inhibitors plays an important role in neuromuscular differentiation. Prostate specific antigen (PSA), a chymotrypsin-like serine protease, is predominantly complexed to Alpha-1-ACT.
Human Plasma
Sterile Filtered clear solution.
Human Alpha-1 AntiChymotrypsin at a concentration of 0.1mg/ml in 50mM Tris-Acetate, pH7.5, 1mM EDTA, 20% Glycerol.
A1ACT although stable at 14°C for 1 week, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
