Description

Alkaline phosphatases function physiologically as homodimers. They catalyze the hydrolysis of phosphomonoesters and release inorganic phosphate. In humans, four isoenzymes have been described: a tissue-nonspecific (TNAP) and three tissue-specific placental (PLAP), intestinal (IAP), and germ cell (GCAP). TNAP is a cell membrane-bound ecto-enzyme that releases inorganic phosphate from phosphate-enriched substrates. Also, ALPL induces the hydrolysis of extracellular inorganic pyrophosphate (PPi) which is a potent endogenous inhibitor of calcification both in vivo and in vitro. Increased activity of the enzyme alkaline phosphatase is associated with lower levels of PPi and vascular calcification present in patients with chronic kidney disease. Mutations in the TNAP gene cause the disease known as hypophosphatasia. It is characterized by poorly mineralized cartilage and bones, spontaneous fractures, and elevated concentrations of extracellular PPi.

Application Notes

Mouse ALPL Activity Assay

  1. In assay buffer, prepare serial dilutions of mALPL in 1 to 2 ratios. Starting concentration is 40 ng/mL.
  2. In assay buffer, prepare the substrate at 50 µM.
  3. Add 50 µL of prepared mALPL dilutions to the assay plate.
  4. Begin the reaction by adding 50 µL of substrate to the plate.
  5. Take readings of the plate at excitation, 365nm, and emission, 445nm, wavelengths in kinetic mode for 5 minutes.
  6. Using the following equation, calculate the specific activity.


Specific Activity (pmol/min/µg) = [Adjusted Vmax* (RFU/min) x Conversion Factor** (pmol/RFU)]/ amount of enzyme (µg)

How does the activity of your recombinant proteins compare to competitors?

We quality control each and every lot of recombinant protein. Not only do we check its bioactivity, but we also compare it against other commercially available recombinant proteins. 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)
