Human tissue kallikrein (KLK1) is a serine protease, component of the KKS that has been demonstrated to exert pleiotropic beneficial effects in protection from tissue injury through its antiinflammatory, antiapoptotic, antifibrotic and antioxidative actions.Polymorphism of the human tissue kallikrein 1 (KLK1) A1789G gene is associated with susceptibility to hypertension.
Product Name:
Mouse Kallikrein 1/KLK1 Recombinant Protein (RPES3906)
Measured by its ability to cleave a flourogenic peptide substrate Pro-Phe-Arg-7-amido-4-methylcoumarin(PFR-AMC).The specific activity is >6, 000 pmol/min/µg.(Activation description: The proenzyme needs to be activated by Thermolysin for an activated form)
Endotoxin:
<1.0 EU per µg of the protein as determined by the LAL method.
Protein Construction:
A DNA sequence encoding the mouse KLK1 (P15947) (Met1-Asp261) was expressed with a C-terminal polyhistidine tag.
This product is provided as lyophilized powder which is shipped with ice packs.
