| Cat# | MDE-003 |
| Specification | 1 mL, 5 mL, 100 mL, 1000 mL |
| Description | Proteinase K is a serine protease with broad substrate specificity, preferentially cleaving near hydrophobic, sulfur-containing, and aromatic amino acids. It contains the catalytic triad Asp39-His69-Ser224 and two Ca²⁺-binding sites that enhance stability. This mNGS-grade version features reduced nucleic acid residues, ensuring higher accuracy in metagenomic sequencing applications. |
| Applications | Specifically designed for metagenomic sequencing (mNGS) sample processing, efficiently lysing host cells and removing proteins. |
| CAS No. | 39450-01-6 |
| Activity | ≥ 800 U/mL |
| Unit Definition | One unit is defined as the amount of enzyme required to hydrolyze casein to produce 1 μmol of L-tyrosine per minute under specified conditions. |
| Storage | Store at 2-8 °C for 24 months. |
