Recombinant Mouse CPA2 Protein (His Tag)

Mouse carboxypeptidase A2 (CPA2) is a secreted pancreatic procarboxy -peptidase which belongs to the peptidase M14 family. CPA2 consists of a signal peptide, a pro region and a mature chain. It can be activated after cleavage of the pro peptide. CPA2 cleaves the C-terminal amide or ester bond of peptides that have a free C-terminal carboxyl group. The hydrolytic action of CPA2 was identified with a preference towards long substrates with aromatic amino acids in their C-terminal end, particularly tryptophan.

Generally, lyophilized proteins are stable for up to 12 months when stored at -20 to -80°C. Reconstituted protein solution can be stored at 4-8°C for 2-7 days. Aliquots of reconstituted samples are stable at < -20°C for 3 months.
