Extra Details:
Involved in proteolysis and elastolysis (degradation of the host protein elastin). Has staphylolytic activity (degrades pentaglycine cross-links in cell wall peptidogylcan), preferring Gly-Gly-|-X substrates where X is Ala or Gly (PubMed:11179971). Enhances the elastolytic but not proteolytic activity of elastase (lasB) and elastolytic activity of other proteases (PubMed:2110137). Degradation of host elastin is likely to contribute to the pathogenicity of P.aeruginosa. While either His-317 or His-356 can abstract a proton in the hydrolysis reaction, the same residue performs both functions in a given catalytic cycle, with the other stabilizing the catalytic intermediate (PubMed:20026068). Applications: Suitable for use in ELISA. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for 12 months after receipt. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
