Human keratinocyte transglutaminase

- Overview
  - His6-rhTG1 is based on the TGM1-allele from I.M.A.G.E.-clone IRAKp961M1628 isolated from human skin squamous cell carcinoma. It is N-terminally fused to a hexahistidine-tag resulting in the encoded N-terminal amino acid sequence MHHHHHHMDGPR. His6-rhTG1 is purified by IMAC to more than 90 % purity.

    Reconstitution
    
    Add the volume of H2O the protein is lyophilized from (see Certificate of Analysis) to the vial of lyophilized powder. Rotate vial gently until solid dissolves. After reconstitution the solution should be stored frozen in working aliquots. Keep cooled on ice for short term storage.
    
    Activity
    
    Add 10 mM Ca2+ to activate His6-rhTG1.
- Applications
  - Application Description
    
    His6-rhTG1 catalyzes acyl transfer reactions from glutamin residues in proteins or peptides to primary amines, e. g. the formation of ε-(γ-glutamyl) lysine bonds between proteins by transferring the acyl group of a peptide-bound glutamine residue to the primary amino group of a peptide-bound lysine residue. His6-rhTG1 may also be used for immunoprecipitation.
