Carboxypeptidase B, rec., GMP Grade
from rat pancreas, expressed in Pichia pastoris, solution
Carboxypeptidase B is a widely used metalloprotease, typically isolated from pancreas of different animals, that specifically releases arginine and lysine from the C-terminus of peptides and proteins. Roche has chemically synthesized a gene encoding for the amino acid sequence of the rat Carboxypeptidase B and has transformed the gene into the expression host Pichia pastoris, which expresses the recombinant Carboxypeptidase B as active protease with identical properties compared to the native Carboxypeptidase B.The production process is validated resulting in a very high lot-to-lot consistency.
