Catalog #: PKA-256
Description:
MAP2K1 active Human Recombinant produced in Sf9 cells is a glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing amino acids 2-393 having a molecular mass of 47 kDa. MAP2K1 is fused to a polyhistidine tag and is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Synonyms:
MEK1, MKK1, MAPKK1, MAP2K1, Dual specificity mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 1, MAP kinase kinase 1, EC 2.7.12.2, ERK activator kinase 1, MAPK/ERK kinase 1, PRKMK1.
Source:
Sf9 Insect Cells.
Purity:
Greater than 90% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
Formulation:
MEK1 is supplied at a concentration of 0.09mg/ml in 40mM Tris, pH-8, 0.15M NaCl, 0.27M sucrose, 1mM DTT, 0.2mM PMSF, 1mM benzamidine, 0.1mM sodium vanadate and 0.03% Brij-35.
Activity:
~125-175 units/mg. One unit of MEK1 activity transfers 1 nmol of phosphate to ERK1/2 peptide per minute at 30 °C in a reaction containing 100 µM ATP.
Recombinant active MEK1 also phosphorylates ERK1, ERK2, and GSK-3?. Kinase activity may vary depending on the substrate and reaction conditions.
The optimal concentration should be determined for each specific application.
Physical Appearance:
Sterile Filtered clear solution.
Storage:
Store at 4 °C if entire vial will be used within 1-2 weeks.
Store frozen at -20 °C for longer periods of time.
