Product Specs

Introduction

Prostatic Acid Phosphatase (ACPP) belongs to the histidine acid phosphatase protein family. It catalyzes the hydrolysis of phosphate monoesters and phosphorylated proteins. ACPP exhibits optimal activity within a pH range of 4-6. Its catalytic activity is inhibited by L(+)-tartrate. Notably, ACPP can function as a lipid phosphatase, demonstrating the ability to inhibit lysophosphatidic acid in seminal plasma.

Description

ACPP Mouse, expressed in Sf9 Baculovirus cells, is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain. It comprises 356 amino acids (32-381 aa) and has a molecular weight of 41.3kDa. The protein includes a 6 amino acid His tag fused at the C-terminus and is purified using proprietary chromatographic techniques.

Physical Appearance
A clear, colorless solution, sterilized by filtration.
Formulation

The ACPP solution is provided at a concentration of 0.5mg/ml in a buffer consisting of 10% Glycerol and Phosphate-Buffered Saline (pH 7.4).

Stability

For short-term storage (2-4 weeks), the product can be stored at 4°C. For extended storage, freezing at -20°C is recommended. Adding a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA) is advisable for long-term storage. Repeated freezing and thawing should be avoided.

Purity

The purity is determined to be greater than 95.0% using SDS-PAGE analysis.

Biological Activity

The specific activity of the enzyme is measured to be greater than 80,000 units per milligram (unit/mg). Specific activity is defined as the amount of enzyme required to hydrolyze 1.0 nanomole of p-nitrophenyl phosphate (pNPP) per minute at a pH of 5.0 and a temperature of 37°C.

Product Science Overview

Structure and Expression

The recombinant mouse prostatic acid phosphatase is typically expressed in HEK293 cells. The DNA sequence encoding the mouse ACPP isoform 1 (Met1-Arg381) is expressed with a C-terminal polyhistidine tag . The recombinant protein consists of 361 amino acids and has a predicted molecular mass of 42 kDa. However, due to glycosylation, its apparent molecular mass is approximately 47 kDa when analyzed by SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions .

Biological Function

Prostatic acid phosphatase is a non-specific phosphomonoesterase that is synthesized and secreted into seminal plasma under androgenic control . The enzyme is a dimer with a molecular weight of around 100 kDa. Its primary function is to dephosphorylate macromolecules, which is facilitated by catalytic residues (His12 and Asp258) located in the cleft between two domains .

Clinical Relevance

Prostatic acid phosphatase is clinically significant due to its role as a biomarker for prostate carcinoma. Elevated levels of PAP in the blood can indicate the presence of prostate cancer. Additionally, PAP has a potential role in fertilization .

Cellular Function

Cellular prostatic acid phosphatase (cPAcP) functions as a neutral protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) in prostate cancer cells. It dephosphorylates HER-2/ErbB-2/Neu (human epidermal growth factor receptor-2) at the phosphotyrosine residues . This activity is proposed to function as a negative growth regulator of prostate cancer cells, in part through its dephosphorylation of ErbB-2 .

Stability and Storage

Recombinant mouse prostatic acid phosphatase is typically provided as a lyophilized powder and is stable for up to twelve months when stored at -20°C to -80°C under sterile conditions. It is recommended to aliquot the protein for optimal storage and to avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles .
