Product Description
Peptidyl-Prolyl Cis/Trans Isomerase NIMA-Interacting 1 Mouse Recombinant
Overview
Pin 1 is a peptidyl-prolyl cis/trans isomerase (PPIase) which interacts with NIMA and essential for cell cycle regulation Pin1 is nuclear PPIase containing a WW protein interaction domain, and is structurally and functionally related to Ess1/Ptf1, an essential protein in budding yeast. PPIase activity is necessary for Ess1/Pin1 function in yeast. Pin1 is thus an essential PPIase that regulates mitosis presumably by interacting with NIMA and attenuating its mitosis-promoting activity. Substrates of Pin1 include the mitotic regulators (Cdc25 phosphatase and NIMA, PLK I, Wee, and Myt1 kinases), several transcription factors like b-Catenin, c-Jun, and the tumor suppressor protein p53, and some specific proteins like the RNA Pol II, the cytoskeleton protein tau, and the G1/S protein Cyclin D1.
Biological Activity
Specific activity is > 1,200 nmol/min/mg, and is defined as the amount of enzyme that cleaves 1nmole of suc-AAFP-PNA per minute at 37°C in Tris-HCl pH 8.0 using chymotrypsin.
Specifications
| Purity | Greater than 95.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE. |
