Catalog No.
PKA-205

Description :

Inactive holoenzyme consisting of one dimeric regulatory subunit type II alpha and two monomeric catalytic subunits (cAMP-free). Recombinant Protein Kinase A is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.

Physical Appearance:

Sterile Filtered clear soultion.

Formulation:

Recombinant PKA holoenzyme type-II alpha is supplied in 50% glycerol.

Storage:

Recombinant PKA should be stored at 4蚓 if entire vial will be used within 2-4 weeks. For long term storage it is recommended to store at -20蚓.
Please avoid freeze-thaw cycles.

Purity:

Greater than 95.0% as determined by:
(a) Analysis by reducing and non-reducing SDS-PAGE Silver Stained gel.

Dimers and aggregates:

Less than 1% as determined by silver-stained SDS-PAGE gel analysis.

Biological Activity:

Prospec's recombinant Holo enzyme can be activated by adding the second messenger cAMP (Activation constant about 100nM) releasing two monomeric catalytic subunits.

Applications:

The product is suitable for analysing PKA type II agonists (cAMP analogs) or antagonists.

Usage:

This material is offered by ProSpec-TechnoGene for research, laboratory or further evaluation purposes.
