ADAM8 蛋白, Rhesus Macaque (HEK293, His)

ADAM8 is a transmembrane glycoprotein containing metalloproteinase and disintegrin domains, belonging to the ADAMs family. It has proteolytic, cell adhesion, cell fusion, and cell signaling properties. It is involved in ectodomain shedding of membrane proteins and is associated with inflammation and neurodegeneration. ADAM8 Protein, Rhesus Macaque (HEK293, His) is the recombinant Rhesus Macaque-derived ADAM8 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-His labeled tag.

在应对炎症刺激 (如脂多糖(LPS) 和肿瘤坏死因子α (TNF-α) 时，ADAM8 在巨噬细胞和中枢神经系统 (CNS) 中活化的神经胶质细胞 (星形胶质细胞和小胶质细胞) 中的表达上调，表明其参与神经元-胶质细胞信号传导。ADAM8具有蛋白水解、细胞粘附、细胞融合和细胞信号传导特性。参与膜蛋白的胞外域脱落(ectodomain shedding)，并与炎症和神经变性有关^[1][2].

Measured by its ability to cleave a fluorogenic peptide substrate Mca-PLAQAV-Dpa-RSSSR-NH₂. The specific activity is 0.77 pmol/min/μg, as measured under the described conditions. (Activation description: The proenzyme needs to be activated by Thermolysin for an activated form.)

Materials
Assay buffer: 50 mM Tris, 10 mM CaCl₂, 150 mM NaCl, pH 7.5 (TCN)
ADAM8 Protein, Rhesus Macaque (HEK293, His) (HY-P772930)
Bacterial Thermolysin
Phosphoramidon: Dissolve in methanol to a concentration of 20 mM Substrate: Mca-PLAQAV-Dpa-RSSSR-NH2 (HY-P3722A)
Standard: MCA-Pro-Leu-OH

Procedure
1. Standard curve preparation: Dilute MCA-Pro-Leu-OH (standard) in assay buffer to the following concentrations: 100, 50, 25, 12.5, 6.25, 3.125, 1.5625, 0.78, 0.39, 0.19, 0 pmoL. Add 100 μL of each standard concentration to a 96-well plate. Read in kinetic mode for 5 minutes at excitation and emission wavelengths of 320 nm and 405 nm, respectively. Plot the standard concentration on the x-axis and the measured RFU on the y-axis to generate a standard curve and obtain the standard curve equation.
2. Dilute the test protein to 400 μg/mL in assay buffer.
3. Mix equal volumes of 1.5 μg/mL Thermolysin and diluted test protein.
4. Incubate at 37°C for 30 minutes.
5. Add Phosphoramidon to a final concentration of 0.05 mM to stop the reaction.
6. Incubate at room temperature for 15 minutes.
7. Dilute the activated test protein to 40 ng/μL in assay buffer.
8. Dilute the substrate to 40 μM in assay buffer.
9. Load 50 μL of 40 ng/μL test protein into a black plate and add 50 μL of 40 μM substrate. For the blank, add 50 μL of assay buffer and 50 μL of 40 μM substrate.
10. Read in kinetic mode for 5 minutes at excitation and emission wavelengths of 320 nm and 405 nm, respectively.
11. Calculate the specific activity:
