Background
IdeZ Protease secreted by the Streptococcus equi subspecies zooepidemicus. This product is an engineered recombinant protease over expressed in Escherichia coli. It can specifically identify IgG, and perform enzyme digestion at specific sites in the hinge region of the antibody, and produce F(ab')2 fragments and Fc fragments, which can identify human and other animal IgG, such as mouse, rabbit, monkey, sheep and human animal chimeric IgG, etc, It can be used for structural characterization analysis of antibodies and fusion protein drugs.
Protocol
1. Add
the desired amount of 5mg IgG in digestion buffer or other compatible buffer*.
2. Add
IdeZ Protease to the reaction system:
• Add 1 unit of IdeZ Protease per 1µg of IgG to be digested.
• For example, add 5µl (200 units) of reconstituted IdeZ to digest 200µg
of IgG.
3. Incubate sample at 37°C for 30–60 minutes
Unit Definition
One unit will cleave ≥95% of 1µg of recombinant monoclonal IgG in 30 minutes at 37°C
