Extra Details:
PPA1 (Inorganic pyrophosphatase 1; also PPase and IOPPP) is a 32-36kD cytoplasmic member of the PPase family of enzymes. It is ubiquitously expressed, and acts on di- (or pyro) phosphate, generating orthophosphate in a Mg+-dependent manner. This activity can both generate energy for cells, or in the case of osteoblasts, provide raw material for calcification. The consumption of pyrophosphate may also remove inhibitors of enzymes such as guanylyl cyclase, and PPA1 itself is also reported to stimulate gene expression. Human PPA1 is 289 amino acids (aa) in length. There is one pyrophosphatase domain between aa42-255, and two utilized acetylation sites at aa57 and aa228. PPA1 is known to form homodimers. There is one potential alternative start site at aa46. Full­-length human PPA1 shares 94% aa sequence identity with mouse PPA1. Applications: Suitable for use in ELISA and Western Blot. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilutions: Western Blot: 1ug/ml in lysates of HepG2 human hepatocellular carcinoma cell line, Hepa 1-6 mouse hepatoma cell line, IMR-32 human neuroblastoma cell line, Neuro-2A mouse neuroblastoma cell line and C6 rat glioma cell line. Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: Lyophilized and reconstituted products are stable for 12 months after receipt at -20°C. Reconstitute with sterile PBS. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
