Introduction
Glutaminyl-Peptide Cyclotransferase, also known as QPCT is a member of
the glutaminyl-peptide cyclotransferase family. QPCT is responsible for the
biosynthesis of pyroglutamyl peptides. Furthermore, QPCT is partial against
acidic and tryptophan residues adjacent to the N-terminal glutaminyl residue
and a lack of importance of chain length following the second residue. QPCT
catalyzes N-terminal pyroglutamate formation, also in vitro, it catalyzes
pyroglutamate formation of N-terminally truncated form of APP amyloid-beta
peptides [Glu-3]-beta-amyloid.
Description
QPCT produced in Sf9 Baculovirus cells is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 339 amino acids (29-361a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 38.7kDa (Molecular size on SDS-PAGE will appear at approximately 28-40kDa). QPCT is expressed with a 6 amino acid His tag at C-Terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
