Mouse Legumain, recombinant (C-6His)

Recombinant Mouse Legumain/Asparaginyl Endopeptidase is produced by our Mammalian expression system and the target gene encoding Val18-Tyr435 is expressed with a 6His tag at the C-terminus.The enzyme achieves its activity under acidic pH. Protein function: Has a strict specificity for hydrolysis of asparaginyl bonds. Can also cleave aspartyl bonds slowly, especially under acidic conditions. May be involved in the processing of proteins for MHC class II antigen presentation in the lysosomal/endosomal system. Required for normal lysosomal protein degradation in renal proximal tubules. Required for normal degradation of internalized EGFR. Plays a role in the regulation of cell proliferation via its role in EGFR degradation. [The UniProt Consortium]
