General description

A non-specific protease liquefies mucins and digests proteins to free amino acids. Can be used to isolate living chondrocytes. Most active at neutral pH, but it is stable over a wide pH and temperature range. Has an optimal pH of 7.5. Note: 1 KU = 1000 units.

Warning

Toxicity: Harmful (C)

Unit Definition

One unit is defined as the amount of enzyme that will liberate a digestion product equivalent to 25 µg of tyrosine per min at 40°C, pH 7.5.

Physical form

Lyophilized from a solution containing calcium acetate as a stabilizer.

Reconstitution

Following reconstitution, store in the refrigerator (4°C). Stock solutions are stable for 24 h at 4°C.

Evolutionarily conserved signaling pathways are crucial for adjusting growth, reproduction, and cell maintenance in response to altered environmental conditions or energy balance. However, we have an incomplete understanding of the signaling networks and mechanistic changes that coordinate physiological changes across

Exposure to isoflurane increases apoptosis among postnatally generated hippocampal dentate granule cells. These neurons play important roles in cognition and behavior, so their permanent loss could explain deficits after surgical procedures. To determine whether developmental anesthesia exposure leads to persistent
