| Description | Recombinant TEV Protease (rTEV) is a site-specific protease purified from E. coli. The protease can be used for the removal of affinity tags from fusion proteins. The seven-amino-acid recognition site for rTEV is Glu-Asn-Leu-Tyr-Phe-Gln-Gly with cleavage occurring between Gln and Gly. The optimal temperature for cleavage is 30 kDa catalytic domain of the Nuclear Inclusion a (NIa) protein encoded by the tobacco etch virus (TEV). Because its sequence specificity is far more stringent than that of factor Xa, thrombin, or enterokinase, TEV protease is a very useful reagent for cleaving fusion proteins. TEV protease recognizes a linear epitope of the general form E-Xaa-Xaa-Y -Xaa-Q-(G/S), with cleavage occurring between Q and G or Q and S. The most commonly used sequence is ENLYFQG. |
| Expression host | Escherichia Coli. |
| Synonyms | rTEV, TEV, P1 protease. |
| Reagent Appearance | Sterile liquid formulation. |
| Stability | rTEV although stable at 4 week, should be stored below -18 ug of fusion protein in 1 hour to 85 % completion at 30 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.0, 0.5 mM EDTA, and 1 mM DTT. |
