Specifications

Our Abpromise guarantee covers the use of ab167759 in the following tested applications.

The application notes include recommended starting dilutions; optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.

  • Biological activity
    Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. Immobilized mouse PCSK9 at 10 µg/ml (100 µl/well) can bind biotinylated rhLDLR.
    The EC50 of biotinylated Human LDLR is 0.1 µg/ml.
  • Applications

Preparation and Storage

  • Stability and Storage

    Shipped at 4°C. Store at +4°C short term (1-2 weeks). Upon delivery aliquot. Store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid freeze / thaw cycle.

    pH: 7.40
    Constituents: 94% PBS, 5% Trehalose

    This product is an active protein and may elicit a biological response in vivo, handle with caution.

  • Reconstitution
    It is strongly recommended to reconstitute the protein with 1000 µl PBS, pH7.4 to a stock solution of 100 µg/ml. Solubilize for 30 to 60 minutes at room temperature with occasional gentle mixing. Carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA) is strongly recommended for further dilution and long term storage.

    see all
  • Function
    May be implicated in the differentiation of cortical neurons and may play a role in cholesterol homeostasis.
  • Tissue specificity
    Expressed in neuro-epithelioma, colon carcinoma, hepatic and pancreatic cell lines, and in Schwann cells.
  • Involvement in disease
    Defects in PCSK9 are the cause of familial hypercholesterolemia 3 (FH3) [MIM:603776]. FH3 inheritance is autosomal dominant.
  • Sequence similarities
    Belongs to the peptidase S8 family.
    Contains 1 peptidase S8 domain.
  • Post-translational
    modifications
    The soluble zymogen undergoes autocatalytic intramolecular processing in the endoplasmic reticulum, resulting in the cleavage of its propeptide that remains associated with the secreted enzyme.
  • Cellular localization
    Secreted.
  • Information by UniProt
