よくあるご質問(FAQ)
Why does AcTEV Protease require DTT?
A final concentration of 1 mM DTT is required for the AcTEV protease reaction. The DTT serves as a stabilizer of secondary structure, i.e., it ensures that the enzyme does not undergo oxidation. If you are unable to use DTT due to a column purification after digestion, you can leave it out and still see a successful AcTEV digestion, however we recommend using it.
No rigorous quantitative data for activity in the absence of DTT and EDTA has been collected in-house. Incubations using reaction buffer +/-DTT and +/- EDTA; have been performed, but the products were analyzed only at t=0 and t=2 hr at 30 degrees C. No difference in the amount of product generated +/-DTT or +/-EDTA was noticed, but it is possible that the detailed kinetics in a time course reaction may be a little different.
What is the cleavage recognition site for AcTEV Protease?
The recognition site for AcTEV Protease is ENLYFQS/G
'G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are eukaryotic integral membrane proteins that modulate biological function by initiating cellular signalling in response to chemically diverse agonists. Despite recent progress in the structural biology of GPCRs, the molecular basis for agonist binding and allosteric modulation of these proteins is poorly understood. Structural knowledge of agonist-bound ... More

'Cysteine is the most intrinsically nucleophilic amino acid in proteins, where its reactivity is tuned to perform diverse biochemical functions. The absence of a consensus sequence that defines functional cysteines in proteins has hindered their discovery and characterization. Here we describe a proteomics method to profile quantitatively the intrinsic reactivity ... More
Widespread bidirectional promoters are the major source of cryptic transcripts in yeast.

'Pervasive and hidden transcription is widespread in eukaryotes, but its global level, the mechanisms from which it originates and its functional significance are unclear. Cryptic unstable transcripts (CUTs) were recently described as a principal class of RNA polymerase II transcripts in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. These transcripts are targeted for degradation immediately ... More
Non-muscle myosin IIA is a functional entry receptor for herpes simplex virus-1.

Herpes simplex virus-1 (HSV-1), the prototype of the a-herpesvirus family, causes life-long infections in humans. Although generally associated with various mucocutaneous diseases, HSV-1 is also involved in lethal encephalitis. HSV-1 entry into host cells requires cellular receptors for both envelope glycoproteins B (gB) and D (gD). However, the gB receptors ... More
Hexameric assembly of the proteasomal ATPases is templated through their C termini.

Substrates of the proteasome are recognized and unfolded by the regulatory particle, and then translocated into the core particle (CP) to be degraded. A hetero-hexameric ATPase ring, containing subunits Rpt1-6, is situated within the base subassembly of the regulatory particle. The ATPase ring sits atop the CP, with the Rpt ... More
