General description

Protein A is a cell wall constituent of Staphylococcus aureus, with a molecular weight of 56kDa. It possesses five binding domains which interact with heavy chains of immunoglobulins at the Fc or Fab fragment.[1] In response to protein A, the complement system, interferon production, hypersensitivity reactions and cell-mediated cytotoxicity get activated. Horseradish peroxidase is a heme-containing enzyme.[2][3] In the presence of hydrogen peroxide, the enzyme catalyzes the oxidation of luminol.[4]

Specificity

Binds IgG only from most mammals, except rat, goat, sheep.

Application

Protein A–Peroxidase from Staphylococcus aureus/horseradish has been used in enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).[5]

Packaging

Package size based on protein content.

Physical form

Lyophilized powder containing sodium citrate buffer salt. Protein determined by A205.

Preparation Note

Protein A, extracellular, coupled to Peroxidase, Type VI, by a modification of the procedure of O′Sullivan, M.J., et al., FEBS Lett., 95, 311 (1978), which favors low molecular weight conjugates.

Protocols

Reinheitszahl (RZ) is the ratio of absorbance due to hemin (A403, Soret region) to absorbance due to protein (A275).

To standardize a procedure for the assay of Peroxidase using 2,2'-Azino-bis(3-Ethylbenzthiazoline-6-Sulfonic Acid) as a substrate.

This procedure is for the determination of Peroxidase enzymatic activity using Pyrogallol as the substrate.

  1. Hello, I would like to know if this conjugate serve for testing equine in a ELISA (Equus ferus caballus). Thank you

    1 answer
    1. For use in Equine sources, Protein G has a significantly higher affinity for IgG, as compared to protein A. Please see the link below to review a comparison table of Protein A to Protein G by species.

  6. I bought Product P8651, Protein A Peroxidase, to hide heavy and light chain in a Western blot. How does it do that?

    1 answer
    1. P8651 will only recognize the native antibody incubated on a blot, not what's run in the gel. This should circumvent heavy and light chain detection.
