Introduction

DPP4 also called adenosine deaminase complexing protein-2, and T-cell activation antigen CD26 is a serine exopeptidase and complex enzyme that is expressed on the surface of most cell types. DPPIV is an intrinsic membrane glycoprotein and a serine exopeptidase that cleaves X-proline dipeptides from the N-terminus of polypeptides. DPP4 plays a role in t-cell activation. DPP4 is associated with intracellular signal transduction, apoptosis and involved in tumor biology. There are at least 63 substrates which can bind specifically to DPP4 enzyme including growth factors, chemokines, neuro peptides. Furthermore, DPP4 plays a major role in glucose metabolism by cleaving incretins such as glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and GLP-1.

Description

FAP Human produced in Sf9 Baculovirus cells is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 744 amino acids (26-760aa) and having a molecular mass of 86.1 kDa.
FAP is fused to a 6 amino acid His tag at C-terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.

Source

Sf9, Baculovirus cells.

Physical Appearance

Sterile Filtered colorless solution.

Formulation

The FAP solution (0.25mg/ml) contains 20% Glycerol and  Phosphate-Buffered Saline (pH 7.4).

Stability

Store at 4°C if entire vial will be used within 2-4 weeks. Store, frozen at -20°C for longer periods of time.
For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).

Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles.

Purity

Greater than 90.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE.

Biological Activity

Specific activity > 5,000 pmol/min/ug. It is defined by the amount of enzyme that hydrolyzes 1.0 pmole of ZGP-AMC per minute at pH 7.5, at 37˚C.
