Background

Kallistatin is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SERPINA4 gene. It is mapped to 14q32.13. Serpin A4 is a member of the Serpin superfamily of the serine protease inhibitors. Known also as Kallistatin or proteinase inhibitor 4, Serpin A4 has been shown to function as a specific inhibitor of tissue kallikrein and as an inhibitor of angiogenesis and tumor growth.

Expressed by the liver and secreted in plasma.

Applications

WB, IHC, ELISA

Field of Research

Cancer, Cell Biology, Cytoskeleton/ECM, ECM Enzymes, Extracellular Matrix, Invasion/Microenvironment, Metalloprotease, Proteolysis/Ubiquitin, Proteolytic Enzymes, Signal Transduction

Purification

Immunogen affinity purified.

Concentration

Adding 0.2 ml of distilled water will yield a concentration of 500 μg/ml.

Form

Lyophilized

Reconstitution

Add 0.2ml of distilled water will yield a concentration of 500ug/ml.

Function

Inhibits human amidolytic and kininogenase activities of tissue kallikrein. Inhibition is achieved by formation of an equimolar, heat- and SDS-stable complex between the inhibitor and the enzyme, and generation of a small C-terminal fragment of the inhibitor due to cleavage at the reactive site by tissue kallikrein.
