Human_Serpin_E2_RECOM_CF_1_112217
The activity of human Serpin E2 was measured by its ability to inhibit trypsin from bovine pancreas. The potency of inhibition was measured by monitoring the cleavage of a fluorogenic substrate Mca-RPKPVE-Nval-WRK(Dnp)-NH2 (10 µM) in the presence of the trypsin (10 ng/mL). The IC50 value of human Serpin E2 is less than 1.84 nM (80 ng/mL).

Description

Serpins are a superfamily of proteins classified into 16 clades (A–P). Serpins are named for their ability to inhibit serine proteases. Some are capable of cross-class inhibition of proteases from the subtilisin, papain and caspase families. Some serpins lack protease inhibitory activity and serve other roles, such as hormone transporters, molecular chaperones or catalysts for DNA condensation. Serpin E2, also known as protease nexin-1 (PN-1), inhibits the catalytic activity of proteases such as thrombin, urokinase plasminogen activator (uPA), tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) and plasmin.  The serpin E2-protease covalent complex binds to low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein (LRP). As a result, it undergoes endocytosis and degradation. Seripin E2 is barely detectable in plasma, but present mainly in the extracellular matrix (ECM), in which interacts with glycosaminoglycans with a high affinity. It was first identified as glia-derived nexin (GDN) in the central nervous system (CNS). In the brain, it functions as a main physiological modulator of thrombin-mediated processes such as neurite outgrowth. Serpin E2 is secreted by many different cell types, including fibroblasts, myoblasts, vascular smooth muscle cells, monocytes, and platelets. It is up-regulated in a large number of invasive/metastatic tumors including breast, prostate, pancreatic, colorectal, oral-squamous, and testicular cancers. It is required for tumor growth and malignant progression.

Application Notes

Human  Serpin E2 Activity Assay

Human Serpin E2 activity is measured by its ability to inhibit cleavage of a fluorogenic peptide substrate, Mca-RPKPVE-Nval-WRK(Dnp)-NH2,  by Trypsin from Bovine pancreas. The potency of hSerpin E2 is described as an IC50 value.

Materials

  1. Recombinant human Serpin E2 (Predicted MW: 43.4 kDa)
  2. Assay Buffer: pH 7.5, 50 mM Tris, 10 mM CaCl2 0.15 M NaCl, 0.05% Brij-35.
  3. Bovine Trypsin
  4. Trypsin substrate: Mca-RPKPVE-Nval-WRK(Dnp)-NH2

 

Activity assay procedures

  1. Dilute hSerpin E2 in 16.0 µg/mL in Assay Buffer.
  2. Make serial dilution of hSerpin E2 in Assay Buffer from 16.0 µg/mL to 0.0156 µg/mL, and include 0 ng/mL as control.
  3. Dilute Trypsin in 0.2 ug/mL in Assay Buffer.
  4. Add into a tube 20 µL of each serially-diluted hSerpin E2 including the control without hSerpin E2, and then add 20 µL of 0.2 µg/mL trypsin solution. Briefly vortex, and then centrifuge the tubes to mix the solutions.
  5. Incubate the mixture at RT for 30 min.
  6. Add 160 µL of Assay Buffer into each tube prepared in step 4 after incubation to make diluted assay mixtures.
  7. Dilute the substrate in Assay Buffer at 20 µM.
  8. Load into a well plate 50 µL of each assay mixture and start the reaction by adding 50 µL of 20 µM Substrate. Include a substrate blank containing 50 µL Assay Buffer and 50 µL of 20 µM Substrate.
  9. Read at excitation and emission wavelengths of 320 nm and 405 nm, respectively, in kinetic mode for 5 minutes.
  10. Analyze the data with non-linear regression to estimate IC50 value of hSerpin E2 towards bovine trypsin.

We make sure each recombinant protein’s activity is at least as good as or better than the competition’s. In order to provide you with the best possible product, we ensure that our testing process is rigorous and thorough. If you’re curious and eager to make the switch to BioLegend recombinants, contact your sales representative today!

What is the specific activity or ED50 of my recombinant protein?

The specific activity range of the protein is indicated on the product datasheets. Because the exact activity values on a per unit basis can largely fluctuate depending on a number of factors, including the nature of the assay, cell density, age of cells/passage number, culture media used, and end user technique, the specific activity is best defined as a range and we guarantee the specific activity of all our lots will be within the range indicated on the datasheet. Please note this only applies to recombinants labeled for use in bioassays. ELISA standard recombinant proteins are not recommended for bioassay usage as they are not tested for these applications.

Have your recombinants been tested for stability?

Our testing shows that the recombinant proteins are able to withstand room temperature for a week without losing activity. In addition the recombinant proteins were also found to withstand four cycles of freeze and thaw without losing activity.

Does specific activity of a recombinant protein vary between lots?

Specific activity will vary for each lot and for the type of experiment that is done to validate it, but all passed lots will have activity within the established ED50 range for the product and we guarantee that our products will have lot-to-lot consistency. Please conduct an experiment-specific validation to find the optimal ED50 for your system.

How do you convert activity as an ED50 in ng/ml to a specific activity in Units/mg?

Use formula Specific activity (Units/mg) = 10^6/ ED50 (ng/mL)
