General description

Shrimp alkaline phosphatase (SAP) has a high specific activity and is a heat-labile alkaline phosphatase. It can be inactivated by a short rise in temperature to 65 °C. SAP is a 155,000Da homodimeric protein with dimensions of about 95 Å×65 Å×50 Å and mol. wt of 155,000.
Completely and irreversibly inactivated in Tris buffers at pH 8.0-8.5 by heating for 15 min at 65°C. No further treatment is necessary.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Shrimp alkaline phosphatase (SAP) catalyzes the in vitro dephosphorylation of DNA or deoxynucleotides (dNTPs). The enzyme activity can be completely inhibited by ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), but the activity can be restored to a large degree by zinc.
