Name : Human PRAK Protein

Product Source :
Recombinant Human PRAK Protein is expressed from Baculovirus-Insect Cells with Strep-II tag at the C-terminus. It contains Met1-Gln471.[Accession | NP_003659.2]

Molecular Weight :
The protein has a predicted MW of 55.57 kDa. Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 35-45 kDa based on Tris-Bis PAGE result.

Endotoxin Level :
Less than 1EU per μg by the LAL method.

Purity :
> 90% as determined by Tris-Bis PAGE> 95% as determined by HPLC

Formulation :
Supplied as 0.22 μm filtered solution in 20mM Tris, 150mM NaCl, 2mM CaCl2 (pH 8.0).

Reconstitution :

Storage and Stability :
Valid for 12 months from date of receipt when stored at -80°C. Recommend to aliquot the protein into smaller quantities for optimal storage. Please minimize freeze-thaw cycles.

Product Concentration :
Tris-Bis PAGE Human PRAK on Tris-Bis PAGE under reduced condition. The purity is greater than 90%. SEC-HPLC The purity of Human PRAK is greater than 95% as determined by SEC-HPLC.

Background :
The p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway plays an important role in cellular responses to inflammatory stimuli and environmental stress. p38 regulated/activated protein kinase (PRAK, also known as mitogen-activated protein kinase activated protein kinase 5 [MAPKAPK5]) functions downstream of p38alpha and p38beta in mediating the signaling of the p38 pathway.

Synonyms :
MAPKAPK5; MAPKAP-K5; MAPKAPK-5; MK-5; MK5
