Sequence without tag. The proposed Strep-Tag is based on experience s with the expression system, a different complexity of the protein could make another tag necessary. In case you have a special request, please contact us.

Characteristics: Key Benefits:

• Made in Germany - from design to production - by highly experienced protein experts.
• Protein expressed with ALiCE® and purified by multi-step, protein-specific process to ensure correct folding and modification.
• These proteins are normally active (enzymatically functional) as our customers have reported (not tested by us and not guaranteed).
• State-of-the-art algorithm used for plasmid design (Gene synthesis).

This protein is a made-to-order protein and will be made for the first time for your order. Our experts in the lab will ensure that you receive a correctly folded protein.

The big advantage of ordering our made-to-order proteins in comparison to ordering custom made proteins from other companies is that there is no financial obligation in case the protein cannot be expressed or purified.

Expression System:

• ALiCE®, our Almost Living Cell-Free Expression System is based on a lysate obtained from Nicotiana tabacum c.v.. This contains all the protein expression machinery needed to produce even the most difficult-to-express proteins, including those that require post-translational modifications.
• During lysate production, the cell wall and other cellular components that are not required for protein production are removed, leaving only the protein production machinery and the mitochondria to drive the reaction. During our lysate completion steps, the additional components needed for protein production (amino acids, cofactors, etc.) are added to produce something that functions like a cell, but without the constraints of a living system - all that's needed is the DNA that codes for the desired protein!

Concentration:

• The concentration of our recombinant proteins is measured using the absorbance at 280nm.
• The protein's absorbance will be measured in several dilutions and is measured against its specific reference buffer.
• We use the Expasy's ProtParam tool to determine the absorption coefficient of each protein.

Purification: Two step purification of proteins expressed in Almost Living Cell-Free Expression System (ALiCE®):

1. In a first purification step, the protein is purified from the cleared cell lysate using StrepTag capture material. Eluate fractions are analyzed by SDS-PAGE.
2. Protein containing fractions of the best purification are subjected to second purification step through size exclusion chromatography. Eluate fractions are analyzed by SDS-PAGE and Western blot.

Purity: >80 % as determined by SDS PAGE, Size Exclusion Chromatography and Western Blot.

Endotoxin Level: Low Endotoxin less than 1 EU/mg (< 0.1 ng/mg)

Grade: Crystallography grade

Application Details

Application Notes: In addition to the applications listed above we expect the protein to work for functional studies as well. As the protein has not been tested for functional studies yet we cannot offer a guarantee though.

Background: Prolyl endopeptidase FAP (EC 3.4.21.26) (170 kDa melanoma membrane-bound gelatinase) (Dipeptidyl peptidase FAP) (EC 3.4.14.5) (Fibroblast activation protein alpha) (FAPalpha) (Gelatine degradation protease FAP) (EC 3.4.21.-) (Integral membrane serine protease) (Post-proline cleaving enzyme) (Serine integral membrane protease) (SIMP) (Surface-expressed protease) (Seprase) [Cleaved into: Antiplasmin-cleaving enzyme FAP, soluble form (APCE) (EC 3.4.14.5) (EC 3.4.21.-) (EC 3.4.21.26)],FUNCTION: Cell surface glycoprotein serine protease that participates in extracellular matrix degradation and involved in many cellular processes including tissue remodeling, fibrosis, wound healing, inflammation and tumor growth. Both plasma membrane and soluble forms exhibit post-proline cleaving endopeptidase activity, with a marked preference for Ala/Ser-Gly-Pro-Ser/Asn/Ala consensus sequences, on substrate such as alpha-2-antiplasmin SERPINF2 and SPRY2 (PubMed:14751930, PubMed:16223769, PubMed:16480718, PubMed:16410248, PubMed:17381073, PubMed:18095711, PubMed:21288888, PubMed:24371721). Degrade also gelatin, heat-denatured type I collagen, but not native collagen type I and IV, vitronectin, tenascin, laminin, fibronectin, fibrin or casein (PubMed:9065413, PubMed:2172980, PubMed:7923219, PubMed:10347120, PubMed:10455171, PubMed:12376466, PubMed:16223769, PubMed:16651416, PubMed:18095711). Also has dipeptidyl peptidase activity, exhibiting the ability to hydrolyze the prolyl bond two residues from the N-terminus of synthetic dipeptide substrates provided that the penultimate residue is proline, with a preference for Ala-Pro, Ile-Pro, Gly-Pro, Arg-Pro and Pro-Pro (PubMed:10347120, PubMed:10593948, PubMed:16175601, PubMed:16223769, PubMed:16651416, PubMed:16410248, PubMed:17381073, PubMed:21314817, PubMed:24371721, PubMed:24717288). Natural neuropeptide hormones for dipeptidyl peptidase are the neuropeptide Y (NPY), peptide YY (PYY), substance P (TAC1) and brain natriuretic peptide 32 (NPPB) (PubMed:21314817). The plasma membrane form, in association with either DPP4, PLAUR or integrins, is involved in the pericellular proteolysis of the extracellular matrix (ECM), and hence promotes cell adhesion, migration and invasion through the ECM. Plays a role in tissue remodeling during development and wound healing. Participates in the cell invasiveness towards the ECM in malignant melanoma cancers. Enhances tumor growth progression by increasing angiogenesis, collagen fiber degradation and apoptosis and by reducing antitumor response of the immune system. Promotes glioma cell invasion through the brain parenchyma by degrading the proteoglycan brevican. Acts as a tumor suppressor in melanocytic cells through regulation of cell proliferation and survival in a serine protease activity-independent manner. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P97321, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10347120, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10455171, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10593948, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12376466, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14751930, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16175601, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16223769, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16410248, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16480718, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16651416, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17105646, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17381073, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18095711, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20707604, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21288888, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21314817, ECO:0000269|PubMed:2172980, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24371721, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24717288, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7923219, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9065413}.
