Certificate of Analysis and Data Sheet
Source:
Human Plasma
Catalog No.
PRO-378
Background:
Description :
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.
Physical Appearance:
Sterile Filtered clear solution.
Formulation:
Human Alpha-1 AntiChymotrypsin at a concentration of 0.1mg/ml in 50mM Tris-Acetate, pH7.5, 1mM EDTA, 20% Glycerol.
Stability:
hA1ACT although stable at 14
0C for 1 week, should be stored desiccated below -18
0C.
For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).
Please avoid freeze-thaw cycles.
Applications:
?ELISA
?Inhibition Assays
?Western Blotting
