Catalogue number
ENZ-275
Synonyms
Bacterial leucyl aminopeptidase, EC 3.4.11.10.
Description
The 29 kDa Aeromonas Aminopeptidase is produced by genetic engineering and can be used for physical & structural investigations, sequence and amino-terminal determinations. This exopeptidase recognizes a specific stop sign at –X- Pro and requires a free a-amino group in the L-configuration. It is therefore suitable for the removal of the redundant N-terminal methionine often added to engineered recombinant proteins.
Source
Aeromonas Proteolytica.
Physical Appearance
Sterile filtered liquid formulation.
Formulation
Buffered solution containing 10mM Tris-HCl, 100mM NaCl and 5µM ZnSO4, pH 8.0.
