MAP, E.coli

(Methionine aminopeptidase, MAP, Peptidase M, map, b0168, JW0163.)

Methionine aminopeptidases and designated peptidase M proteins belong to the M24 family of proteins. MAP protein removes the amino-terminal methionine residue from nascent polypeptides. The active site of MAP contains 2 adjacent divalent metal ions connected by a water molecule or hydroxide ion.

MAP produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 284 amino acids (1-264 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 31.5kDa. MAP is fused to a 20 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.

Purity: Greater than 90% as determined by SDS-PAGE.

Source: Escherichia Coli.

Physical Appearance: Sterile Filtered clear solution.

Formulation: MAP protein solution (1mg/ml) 20mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 8.0), 10% glycerol and 2mM DTT.
