PCSK9 (D374Y) His-Avi-Tag, Biotin-Labeled Recombinant

Products from BPS Bioscience require a minimum order value above 400€

Encompassing Amino Acids: 31-692(end)

Applications: SDS-PAGE and pull-down assays.

Background: PCSK9 (Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9) functions as a negative regulator of hepatic low-density lipoprotein receptors (LDLRs) by binding to the LDLR ectodomain. The D374Y mutation is a gain of function mutation. The D374Y mutation is associated with hypercholesterolemia. This PCSK9 mutant is more potent at decreasing LDL uptake than wild-type PCSK9, most likely by increasing the binding affinity of PCSK9 for the LDLR. A deeper understanding of the function of this mutant protein and development of specific inhibitors may result in new therapeutic approaches for PCSK9 D374Y-linked diseases.

Description: Recombinant human PCSK9 (Human proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin 9) encompassing amino acids 31-692, which comprise the protodomain, the catalytic, and the C-terminal domains. The construct contains a C-terminal His-tag (6xHis) followed by an Avi-tag™. The protein contains the potent gain of function D374Y mutation. The protein was affinity purified.
