General description
Proteinase K is an endopeptidase that belongs to the subtilisin family of proteinases. The polypeptide chain contains 278 amino acids with the catalytic triad Asp39, His69, Ser224.
Application
Proteinase K has been used:
- to de-crosslink immunoprecipitated samples
- to treat the poly-L-lysine coated slides of colon tissues for terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) assay
- in in situ hybridization
Biochem/physiol Actions
Proteinase K catalyzes the hydrolysis of esters and peptide bonds. It is used with non-aqueous hydrated solvents for synthesizing peptides. Proteinase K is used to break the cross-linking that develops secondary to formalin fixation and expose the target sequence for primers and polymerase.
