| Targets |
Carboxypeptidase B targets the C-terminal basic amino acids (arginine and lysine) of peptides and proteins. As an enzyme, it does not have a receptor target but rather acts on peptide substrates. It is found in pancreatic secretions and is involved in activating digestive enzymes and modulating inflammation. It has potential therapeutic applications in treating conditions like pancreatitis, cancer, and wound healing.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In vitro, Carboxypeptidase B (MS grade) is used for the specific cleavage of C-terminal basic amino acids from peptides and proteins. It is used in proteomics and mass spectrometry applications for protein digestion and peptide mapping. The enzyme's activity is typically assessed by measuring the release of free amino acids from peptide substrates. It is used either alone or in combination with other proteases for protein analysis.
|
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, Carboxypeptidase B is found in pancreatic secretions and plays a role in activating digestive enzymes and modulating inflammation. It has potential therapeutic applications in treating conditions like pancreatitis, cancer, and wound healing by influencing protein digestion, immune response, and tissue repair. However, the MS grade enzyme is primarily used for research applications rather than therapeutic purposes.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
For non-cell-based assays, Carboxypeptidase B (MS grade) is used in enzyme activity assays to measure its proteolytic activity. The enzyme is incubated with a suitable peptide substrate containing a C-terminal basic amino acid, and the release of free amino acids is measured. Activity is typically expressed in units per mg of protein. The enzyme's identity and purity are confirmed using techniques such as SDS-PAGE and mass spectrometry.
|
| Cell Assay |
For in vitro cellular assays, Carboxypeptidase B (MS grade) is not typically used for cell-based functional assays. Its primary application is in proteomics and mass spectrometry sample preparation for protein digestion. It may be used in studies of protein processing and maturation, where its ability to cleave C-terminal basic amino acids is utilized to study protein structure and function.
|
| Animal Protocol |
For in vivo animal studies, Carboxypeptidase B (MS grade) is not typically administered for therapeutic purposes. It may be used in research studies to investigate the role of carboxypeptidase B in physiological processes such as blood coagulation, digestion, and inflammation. However, its primary use is as a research tool in biochemistry and proteomics rather than for in vivo administration.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Carboxypeptidase B (MS grade) is sourced from E. coli and appears as a white to off-white solid. It has a specific activity of 42400 U/g protein. One unit is defined as the amount of enzyme that hydrolyzes hemoglobin to produce 1 μmol tyrosine per minute at 37°C. The enzyme has a molecular weight of approximately 610.70 and is supplied with a purity of ≥95%.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
The toxicity profile of Carboxypeptidase B (MS grade) is not applicable, as it is an enzyme used for research purposes. Standard laboratory safety precautions should be observed when handling the enzyme. The product is for research use only and is not intended for therapeutic use.

| Additional Infomation |
A zinc-dependent carboxypeptidase primarily found in the digestive system. This enzyme preferentially catalyzes the cleavage of terminal lysine or arginine residues in peptide chains. It was previously classified as EC 3.4.2.2 and EC 3.4.12.3.
Carboxypeptidase B (MS grade, EC 3.4.2.2, CAS 9025-24-5) is a metalloprotease enzyme that specifically cleaves basic amino acids (arginine and lysine) from the carboxyl-terminal end of peptides and proteins. It is used in proteomics and mass spectrometry applications for protein digestion and peptide mapping. It is sourced from E. coli and is available for research purposes only. |
