PCSK2, Recombinant, Human (Neuroendocrine Convertase 2, NEC 2, KEX2-like Endoprotease 2, Prohormone Convertase 2, Proprotein Convertase 2, PC2, NEC2)

Proprotein Convertase 2 (PCSK2) is a subtilisin-like serine peptidase that processes proteins into biologically active products in the secretory pathway. Like other furin/kexin family members, PCSK2 cleaves its substrates primarily after sites of paired basicaaresidues. Autoactivation of PCSK2 occurs in a post-Golgi compartment of the secretory system. Interaction with the secretory protein 7B2 is required for proper activation of PCSK2. The N-terminal domain of 7B2 stabilizes active PCSK2, and a C-terminal fragment of 7B2 can inhibit PCSK2 activity. rhPCSK2 was coexpressed with 7B2 to facilitate activation of the enzyme. PCSK2 is a major proteolytic processing enzyme of the regulated secretory pathway of the neuroendocrine system, where it generates a number of hormones and neuropeptides. Products of PCSK2 processing include enkephalins, insulin, somatostatin, dynorphin, and LHRH.\n\nSource: \nChinese Hamster Ovary cell line, CHO-derived Gly110-Asn638 with a C-terminal 6-His tag\n\nSDS-PAGE:\n69kD, reducing conditions\n\nActivity:\nMeasured by its ability to cleave the fluorogenic peptide substrate pERTKR-AMC. \n\nSpecific Activity:\n (same/more than)60 pmoles/min/ug\n\nEndotoxin Level: (same/less than)1EU/1ug (LAL)\n\nStorage and Stability:\nAliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing and store at -70 degrees C.
