Background: PGA4 (Pepsinogen 4; group I); or Pepsinogen A; is a member of the peptidase A1 family. Pepsin is expressed as a pro-form zymogen; pepsinogen; whose primary structure has an additional 44 amino acids. Pepsin is stored as pepsinogen so it will only be released when needed; and does not digest the body's own proteins in the stomach's lining. Five types of zymogens of pepsins; gastric digestive proteinases; are known: pepsinogens A; B; and F; progastricsin; and prochymosin. There are two major groups of pepsinogen; namely pepsinogen A (PGA) and pepsinogen C (PGC) (or progastricsin); and each frequently has isozymogens. The PGA3; PGA4 and PGA5 genes encode identical human pepsinogen A enzymes.

Concentration:

Activity: Measured by its ability to cleave the fluorogenic peptide substrate, Mca-RPKPVE-Nval-WRK(Dnp)-NH2, AnaSpec, Catalog # 27114.The specific activity is > 10, 000 pmoles/min/μg. (Activation description: The enzyme achieves its activity under acidic pH)

Sequence: Met 1-Ala 388

Purity: > 97 % as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE.

Formulation: Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4
Normally 5% - 8% trehalose, mannitol and 0.01% Tween 80 are added as protectants before lyophilization.
Please refer to the specific buffer information in the printed manual.

Reconstitution: Please refer to the printed manual for detailed information.

Endotoxin: < 1.0 EU per μg of the protein as determined by the LAL method.
