Enterokinase is a member of the trypsin family of serine proteases. The precursor protein is cleaved into two chains which then forms a heterodimer linked by a disulfide bond. The heavy chain anchors enterokinase in the intestinal brush border membrane and the light chain is the catalytic subunit, which initiates conversion activation of a subset of pancreatic proteolytic proenzymes. Enterokinase is the physiological activator of trypsinogen and has a specificity for the sequence (Asp)4-Lys-Ile. The mature trypsin in turn activates other proenzymes including chymotrypsinogen, procarboxypeptidases, and proelastases. In addition, Enterokinase is a tool protease widely utilized in the cleavage of recombinant fusion proteins.

Stability & Storage |
It is recommended to store recombinant proteins at -20°C to -80°C for future use. Lyophilized powders can be stably stored for over 12 months, while liquid products can be stored for 6-12 months at-80℃. For reconstituted proteinsolutions, the solution can be stored at -20°c to -80'c for at least 3 months. Please avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles and store products in aliquots. |
Shipping |
In general, Lyophilized powders are shipping with blue ice. |
