Also cleaves human IL1B precursor to form biologically active IL1B. Can induce apoptosis in human monocytes and epithelial cells in vitro, and reduces phagocytic activity in monocytic cells. Thus, may play a role in bacterial colonization, invasion, and inhibition of wound healingReference: "A conserved Streptococcus pyogenes extracellular cysteine protease cleaves human fibronectin and degrades vitronectin."Kapur V., Topouzis S., Majesky M.W., Li L.L., Hamrick M.R., Hamill R.J., Patti J.M., Musser J.M.Microb. Pathog. 15:327-346(1993)Purity: Greater than 90% as determined by SDS-PAGE.Storage: The shelf life is related to many factors, storage state, buffer ingredients, storage temperature and the stability of the protein itself. Generally, the shelf life of liquid form is 6 months at -20℃/-80℃. The shelf life of lyophilized form is 12 months at -20℃/-80℃.Notes: Repeated freezing and thawing is not recommended. Store working aliquots at 4℃ for up to one week.
