Streptavidin

Streptavidin

The Streptavidin preparation contains an N- and C-terminal shortened variant (core streptavidin) with improved properties concerning homogeneity, solubility, resistance towards proteolytic degradation and accessibility of the biotin binding pocket as compared to native streptavidin. Streptavidin has a molecular weight of 55kDa.

Accession

P22629

Applications

Streptavidin may be used to visualize biotin conjugated molecules in ELISA, blotting and histological technique.

Formulation

Lyophilized (1mg/ml) in 50mM NaCl, pH 9.0.

Physical Appearance

Sterile Filtered lyophilized powder.

Proteolytic Activity

Less than 10-3 U/mg protein (Azocoll, 25oC, 24 h, pH 8.0).

Purity

Greater than 95.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE.

Solubility

Gives a clear solution at 5mg/ml in 0.1M NaCl.

Source

Bacterium Streptomyces avidinii.

Specific Activity

Greater than 15.7 U/mg, 1 unit binds 1ug biotin.

Stability

Streptavidin although stable at 4oC for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18oC.
For longer storage in dissolved form add 1mM EDTA and/or 0.02 % NaN3 or pass the solution through a sterile filter.
Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
