7.背景Background:
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).
8保存和稳定性Storage&Stability:
Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycle.Store at 2-8℃ for delivery and store at -20 or -70℃ for future use. The loss rate of the target protein which describes the stability was determined by accelerated thermal degradation test.That is to incubate the protein at 37℃ for 48h and no obvious degradation and precipitation were observed.The loss of this protein is less than 5% within the expiration date under appropriate storage condition.
