 PAPPA PROTEIN TARGET DESCRIPTION:
Synonym Names for PAPPA protein: PAPPA; Pappalysin-1; Pregnancy-Associated Plasma Protein-1;Insulin-like growth factor-dependent IGF binding protein-4, EC3.4.24.79; IGF-dependent IGFBP-4 protease; IGFBP-4ase.; EC 3.4.24.79; Pregnancy-associated plasma protein A; PAPP-A; Insulin-like growth fact; Pappalysin-1

PAPP-A is a large zinc binding protein, which acts as ametalloprotease and has been shown to cleave insulin-like growth factor binding protein-4. PAPP-A can act as a regulator of IGFbioactivity in several biological systems, including the human ovaryand cardiovascular systems. Recent studies have shown that levels are elevated in patients with unstable angina or acute myocardialinfarction. PAPP-A is also produced in high concentrations duringpregnancy and is released into the maternal circulation. Low levelsof PAPP-A have been linked with a number of foetal chromosomalabnormalities, as well as pre-eclampsia and stillbirth.
RANDOX recombinant PAPP-A comprises a 191 amino acidfragment (81-271) corresponding to the PAPP-A ‘Jelly-Roll’ domain fragment and is expressed in E. coli with an amino-terminal hexahistidine tag. This product is for research use only and is not intended for diagnostic or therapeutic use.

Function: Metalloproteinase which specifically cleaves IGFBP-4 and IGFBP-5, resulting in release of bound IGF. Cleavage of IGFBP-4 is dramatically enhanced by the presence of IGF whereas cleavage of IGFBP-5 is slightly inhibited by the presence of IGF.

Catalytic Activity: Cleavage of the 135-Met-|-Lys-136 bond in insulin-like growth factor binding protein (IGFBP)-4, and the 143-Ser-|-Lys-144 bond in IGFBP-5.

Cofactor: Binds 1 zinc ion per subunit (By similarity).

Enzyme Regulation: Inhibited by complexation with the proform of PRG2.

Subunit: Homodimer; disulfide-linked. In pregnancy serum, predominantly found as a disulfide-linked 2:2 heterotetramer with the proform of PRG2.

Subcellular Location: Secreted.

Tissue Specificity: High levels in placenta and pregnancy serum. In placenta, expressed in X cells in septa and anchoring villi, and in syncytiotrophoblasts in the chorionic villi. Lower levels are found in a variety of other tissues including kidney, myometrium, endometrium, ovaries, breast, prostate, bone marrow, colon, fibroblasts and osteoblasts.

Developmental Stage: Present in serum and placenta during pregnancy; levels increase throughout pregnancy.

Induction: By 8-bromoadenosine-3',5'-phosphate.

Ptm: There appear to be no free sulfhydryl groups.

Similarity: Belongs to the peptidase M43B family [view classification].

Similarity: Contains 5 Sushi (CCP/SCR) domains.

OMIM: 176385; gene. [NCBI / EBI]

Precautions: PAPPA protein is for in vitro research use only. Not for use in diagnostics or therapeutic procedures.

Important Notes: During shipment, small volumes of PAPPA protein vial. For products with volumes of 200 µL or less, we recommend gently tapping the vial on a hard surface or briefly centrifuging the vial in a tabletop centrifuge to dislodge any liquid in the container’s cap. Actual concentration, volume and quantity will be printed on the vial's label. Please refer to the vials label for this information.
