Product Description
Paraoxonase-1 Human Recombinant, HEK
Overview
Paraoxonase-1 or PON1 is part of the paraoxonase group of proteins. PON1 is an enzyme, responsible to the toxic metabolites of a different of organophosphorus insecticides hydrolyzation. Furthermore, PON1 is a dominant anti-atherosclerotic part of HDL. The enzyme needs PPAR-gamma for activation, leading to synthesis and release of paraoxonase 1 from the liver tissue, resulting in atherosclerosis reduction. PON1 has many qualities for atheroprotective through inflammatory lipid peroxides metabolism. This enzyme can hydrolyze a large number of substrates, for example cyclic carbonates, lactones, nerve gases etc.
Biological Activity
Specific activity is > 2,500 pmol/min/ug. Defined by the amount of enzyme that hydrolyzes 1pmole of pnitrophenyl acetate to p-nitrophenol per minute at pH 7.5 at 37˚C.
Specifications
| Purity | Greater than 90.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE. |
|---|---|
| Formulation | The PON1 solution (0.25mg/ml) contains 20% Glycerol and Phosphate-Buffered Saline (pH 7.4). |
| Storage | Store at 4°C if entire vial will be used within 2-4 weeks. Store, frozen at -20°C for longer periods of time. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles. |
