Trypsin Sequencing Grade is used to to digest proteins in solution, in gels or on blotting membranes.
The enzyme is used for protein-structure elucidation, tryptic mapping, fingerprinting, sequence analysis, and translocation studies. Trypsin Sequencing Grade generates glycopeptides from purified glycoproteins and is suited for the digestion of proteins in polyacrylamide gels.
Trypsin Sequencing Grade is isolated from bovine pancreas as a highly purified and specific protease. Trypsin Sequencing Grade is a serine endopeptidase. It specifically cleaves peptide bonds at the carboxylic side of the basic amino acids Arg and Lys. Amide and ester bonds of Arg and Lys are also cleaved.
