Human PCSK9 (R194A), His Tag (PCA-H5226) is expressed from human 293 cells (HEK293). It contains AA Gln 31 - Gln 692 (Accession # AAI166619.1).
Predicted N-terminus: Gln 31

This protein is fused with a polyhistidine tag at the C-terminus. This protein undergoes autocatalytic cleavage to release the pro-peptide and mature chain. The pro-peptide and mature chain are associated through non‑covalent interactions and with a calculated MW of 13.8 kDa and 58.0 kDa respectively. The protein migrates as 17 kDa and 66 kDa under reducing (R) condition (SDS-PAGE) due to glycosylation. The R194A mutation results in lower affinity of PCSK9 for LDLR.
Less than 1.0 EU per μg by the LAL method.
>95% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
Lyophilized from 0.22 μm filtered solution in PBS, pH7.4. Normally trehalose is added as protectant before lyophilization.

Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9), is an enzyme which in humans is encoded by the PCSK9 gene.This gene encodes a proprotein convertase belonging to the proteinase K subfamily of the secretory subtilase family. This protein plays a major regulatory role in cholesterol homeostasis. PCSK9 binds to the epidermal growth factor-like repeat A (EGF-A) domain of the low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR), inducing LDLR degradation. PCSK9 may also have a role in the differentiation of cortical neurons. Mutations in this gene have been associated with a rare form of autosomal dominant familial hypercholesterolemia (HCHOLA3).
