Product Specific Information

Store vial at 4° C prior to restoration. For extended storage aliquot contents and freeze at -20° C or below. Avoid cycles of freezing and thawing.

Anti-Papain antibody is an IgG fraction antibody purified from monospecific antiserum by a multi-step process which includes delipidation, salt fractionation and ion exchange chromatography followed by extensive dialysis against the buffer stated above. Assay by immunoelectrophoresis resulted in a single precipitin arc against anti-Goat Serum as well as purified and partially purified Papain [Carica papaya]. Cross reactivity against Papain from other sources may occur but has not been specifically determined.

Target Information

Papain is a protease derived from the papaya fruit (Carica papaya). It hydrolyses peptides with broad specificity, but shows a preference for large hydrophobic amino acids in the P2 position. It is synthesised as an inactive 40 kDa precursor containing a 107 residue N terminal pro region and a 26 residue signal peptide.
