Expression Region:

2-475aa

Subcellular Location:

Cytoplasm

Tissue Specificity:

Isoform 1 is ubiquitously expressed with higher levels in kidney and liver (at protein level). Expressed in peripheral blood leukocytes (PubMed:12473676). Isoform 2 is expressed in fetal tissues, it is only expressed in adult liver and placental tissues. Down-regulated in gastric cancer tissues (at protein level) (PubMed:24395568).

Protein Length:

Full Length of Mature Protein

Pathway:

Mol. Weight:

56.7 kDa

Purity:

Greater than 90% as determined by SDS-PAGE.

Form:

Liquid or Lyophilized powder

Buffer:

If the delivery form is liquid, the default storage buffer is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 5%-50% glycerol. If the delivery form is lyophilized powder, the buffer before lyophilization is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 6% Trehalose, pH 8.0.

Research Areas:

Cell Biology

Function:

Hydrolyzes a variety of dipeptides including L-carnosine but has a strong preference for Cys-Gly

Involvement in disease:

Relevance:

Hydrolyzes a variety of dipeptides including L-carnosine but has a strong preference for Cys-Gly. Isoform 2 may be play a role as tumor suppressor in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells.

Reconstitution:

We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Please reconstitute protein in deionized sterile water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL.We recommend to add 5-50% of glycerol (final concentration) and aliquot for long-term storage at -20℃/-80℃. Our default final concentration of glycerol is 50%. Customers could use it as reference.

Protein Families:
