Applications/Dilutions

Application Notes
Assay
1. Prepare 170ul assay buffer into a suitable container and pre-chill on ice before use: The final concentrations are 200 mM Tris-Hcl, pH 8.0, and 20nM chymotrypsin.
2. Add 10ul of recombinant Cyclophilin F(PPIF) protein with 1ug in assay buffer.
3. Mix by inversion and equilibrate to 1C and monitor the A405nm until the value is constant using a spectrophotometer.
4. Add 20ul pre-chilled 5mM suc-AAFP-pNA. (Substrate was dissolved in TFE that contained 460mM LiCl to a concentration of 3 mM)
5. Record the increase in A405 nm for 30 minutes at 25C. Use in immunoprecipitation, and western blot reported in scientific literature (PMID 26387735)
Theoretical MW
21 kDa.
Disclaimer note: The observed molecular weight of the protein may vary from the listed predicted molecular weight due to post translational modifications, post translation cleavages, relative charges, and other experimental factors.

Background

Cyclophilin F (also known as Peptidylprolyl isomerase F, PPIF) is a member of peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase family. They are highly-conserved cytoplasmic enzymes that accelerate protein folding. This protein is part of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore in the inner mitochondrial membrane. Activation of this pore is thought to be involved in the induction of apoptotic and necrotic cell death. Recombinant PPIF protein was expressed in E.coli and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques.
