Analysis
Product Datasheets
Carrier Free
CF stands for Carrier Free (CF). We typically add Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) as a carrier protein to our recombinant proteins. Adding a carrier protein enhances protein stability, increases shelf-life, and allows the recombinant protein to be stored at a more dilute concentration. The carrier free version does not contain BSA.
In general, we advise purchasing the recombinant protein with BSA for use in cell or tissue culture, or as an ELISA standard. In contrast, the carrier free protein is recommended for applications, in which the presence of BSA could interfere.

Assay Procedure
- Activation Buffer: 50 mM Tris, 0.05% (w/v) Brij-35, pH 8.0
- Assay Buffer: 50 mM Tris, 1.0 M Sodium Citrate, pH 7.5
- Recombinant Human Kallikrein 6/Neurosin (rhKLK6) (Catalog # 5164-SE)
- Lysyl-Endopeptidase (Wako BioProducts, Catalog # 129-02541), 20 U/mL in PBS
- Substrate: BOC-Gln-Ala-Arg-AMC (Catalog # ES014), 10 mM stock in DMSO
- F16 Black Maxisorp Plate (Nunc, Catalog # 475515)
- Fluorescent Plate Reader (Model: SpectraMax Gemini EM by Molecular Devices) or equivalent
- Dilute rhKLK6 to 200 µg/mL in Activation Buffer.
- Dilute Lysyl-endopeptidase to 2.5 mU/mL in Activation Buffer.
- Combine and mix equal volumes of diluted rhKLK6 and diluted Lysyl-endopeptidase.
- Incubate at room temperature for 30 minutes.
- After incubation, dilute rhKLK6 to 0.5 µg/mL in Assay Buffer.
- Dilute Substrate to 200 µM in Assay Buffer.
- Load into a black well plate 50 µL of 0.5 µg/mL rhKLK6, and start the reaction by adding 50 µL of 200 µM Substrate. Include a Substrate Blank containing 50 µL of Assay Buffer and 50 µL of 200 µM Substrate.
- Read at excitation and emission wavelengths of 380 nm and 460 nm (top read), respectively, in kinetic mode for 5 minutes.
- Calculate specific activity:
Specific Activity (pmol/min/µg) = |
Adjusted Vmax* (RFU/min) x Conversion Factor** (pmol/RFU) |
amount of enzyme (µg) |
*Adjusted for Substrate Blank
**Derived using calibration standard 7-Amino, 4-Methyl Coumarin (AMC) (Sigma, Catalog # A-9891).
Per Well:- rhKLK6: 0.025 µg
- Substrate: 100 µM

Background: Kallikrein 6/Neurosin
Tissue kallikreins are a family of extracellular serine proteases consisting of 15 members (1, 2). The genes of this family aligned in tandem on chromosome 19q13.4 represent the largest contiguous group of proteases within the human genome. Tissue kallikreins have attracted great interest as potential biomarkers for various cancers, including prostate, ovarian, breast, testicular, and lung (2, 3). Human Kallikrein 6 (hKLK6) is a member of tissue kallikrein family observed in breast and brain tissues, colon carcinoma cells, and oligodedrocytes (1 - 3). Known protein substrates of hKLK6 are myelin basic protein, the precursor of the A beta amyloid peptide, and plasminogen. Its physiological functions may include the participation in demyelination processes as well as in the progression of inflammatory disease of the CNS. The level of hKLK6 is reduced in brain extracts of Alzheimer patients and increased in serum of patients with ovarian cancer.
