Purity: Greater than 90% as determined by SDS-PAGE. Endotoxin: Not test. Biological Activity: n/a. Form: Liquid or Lyophilized powder. Buffer: If the delivery form is liquid, the default storage buffer is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 5%-50% glycerol. If the delivery form is lyophilized powder, the buffer before lyophilization is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 6% Trehalose, pH 8.0. Reconstitution: We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Please reconstitute protein in deionized sterile water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL.We recommend to add 5-50% of glycerol (final concentration) and aliquot for long-term storage at -20 °C/-80 °C. Our default final concentration of glycerol is 50%. Customers could use it as reference. Storage: The shelf life is related to many factors, storage state, buffer ingredients, storage temperature and the stability of the protein itself. Generally, the shelf life of liquid form is 6 months at -20 °C/-80 °C. The shelf life of lyophilized form is 12 months at -20 °C/-80 °C. Notes: Repeated freezing and thawing is not recommended. Store working aliquots at 4 °C for up to one week. Relevance: Thermolysin-like specificity, but is almost confined on acting on polypeptides of up to 30 amino acids . Biologically important in the destruction of opioid peptides such as Met- and Leu-enkephalins by cleavage of a Gly-Phe bond . Able to cleave angiotensin-1, angiotensin-2 and angiotensin 1-9 . Involved in the degradation of atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) . Displays UV-inducible elastase activity toward skin preelastic and elastic fibers . Reference: Common acute lymphocytic leukemia antigen is identical to neutral endopeptidase.Letarte M., Vera S., Tran R., Addis J.B.L., Onizuka R.J., Quackenbush E.J., Jongeneel C.V., McInnes R.R.J.
