Product Specs

Introduction
SERPINB5 (Maspin) is a tumor suppressor protein belonging to the serine proteinase inhibitor family. It plays a crucial role in embryonic development due to its critical functions in cell adhesion. While found in normal breast and prostate epithelial cells, Maspin is often downregulated in corresponding carcinomas. This protein hinders the growth, invasion, and metastasis of mammary tumors, as well as the invasive capacity of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma cells. As a breast tumor suppressor gene, SERPINB5 serves as a vital marker for disease progression in breast neoplasms. Elevated maspin expression is associated with squamous cell carcinoma in non-small-cell lung cancer. Additionally, maspin expression directly correlates with the aggressiveness of ovarian carcinoma. Notably, Maspin does not exhibit serine protease inhibitory activity because it lacks the typical stressed-to-relaxed conformational transition observed in active serpins.
Description
Recombinant human SERPINB5, produced in E. coli, is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain comprising 375 amino acids. It has a molecular weight of 42.2 kDa. The purification process involves proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Physical Appearance
Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
Formulation
Lyophilized from a 0.2 µm filtered concentrated solution in PBS with a pH of 7.0.
Solubility
For reconstitution, dissolve the lyophilized SERPINB5 in sterile 18 MΩ-cm H₂O at a concentration of at least 100 µg/ml. This solution can be further diluted into other aqueous solutions as needed.
Stability
Lyophilized SERPINB5 remains stable at room temperature for up to 3 weeks. However, for long-term storage, it should be stored desiccated at a temperature below -18°C. Once reconstituted, SERPINB5 should be stored at 4°C for no more than 2-7 days. For extended storage after reconstitution, add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA) and store below -18°C. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Purity
Purity exceeds 97.0% as determined by: (a) High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis. (b) SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) analysis.
Synonyms
PI5, maspin, SERPINB5, serpin peptidase inhibitor clade B (ovalbumin) member 5, Serpin B5, Protease inhibitor 5.
Source
Escherichia Coli.

Product Science Overview

Gene and Protein Structure

The SERPINB5 gene is located on chromosome 18q21.3 and encodes a protein that is approximately 42 kDa in size . The protein structure of SERPINB5 includes a reactive center loop (RCL) that is typical of serpins, but it does not undergo the conformational change necessary for protease inhibition .

Biological Function

SERPINB5 functions primarily as a tumor suppressor. It has been shown to inhibit the growth, invasion, and metastatic properties of mammary tumors . This protein plays a crucial role in various biological processes, including:

  • Extracellular matrix organization
  • Prostate gland morphogenesis
  • Regulation of epithelial cell proliferation
Clinical Significance

SERPINB5 is considered a biomarker for hepatocellular carcinoma and is associated with several other diseases, including bone squamous cell carcinoma and giant hemangioma . Its role in tumor suppression makes it a potential target for cancer therapy.

Pathways and Interactions

SERPINB5 is involved in several important cellular pathways, such as:

  • Apoptosis and Autophagy
  • Angiogenesis

These pathways are critical for maintaining cellular homeostasis and preventing uncontrolled cell growth.

Research and Therapeutic Potential

Given its role in tumor suppression, SERPINB5 is a subject of ongoing research. Scientists are exploring its potential as a therapeutic target for cancer treatment. Understanding the mechanisms by which SERPINB5 inhibits tumor growth could lead to the development of new cancer therapies.
