Product Description Acetyl esterase (sialate-O-acetylesterase) is a recombinant protein from Tannerella forsythia, ATCC 43037 strain, expressed in Escherichia coli. The enzyme removes acetyl groups attached via an O- group, mainly 9-, 8- and 7-. It can be used for monitoring of diacetylation of sialic acids on products such as erythropoietin (EPO). The Zyme Acetyl Esterase Kit removes 9-, 8- and 7-O-acetyl groups from released sialic acids, released glycans or glycoproteins. It is commonly used for the characterization of highly-sialylated biotherapeutics such as EPO, FSH and blood clotting factors. Molecular Weight 76.3 kD Contents Acetyl esterase – PBS pH7.5 buffer containing 10 mM Tris-HCl Reaction Buffer – 500 mM sodium acetate pH5.5 Number of Samples Sufficient for up to 50 samples. Amount of Sample Up to 10 µg glycoprotein, up to 2.5 µg released glycans and up to 1 µg free sialic acid per digestion. Suitable Samples Acetyl esterase (sialate-O-acetylesterase) can act upon complex glycoprotein samples, such as erythropoietin (EPO), bovine submaxillary mucin and oral epithelial cell-bound glycans, and on N- and O-glycans released from a glycoprotein. Either fluorescently labelled or unlabelled glycans are suitable. It can also be used on released sialic acids. Unit Definition One unit (U) of acetyl esterase is defined as the amount of enzyme required to produce 300 μmole of 4-nitrophenol and acetate in 1 minute at 30°C in a buffer containing 50 mM Tris-HCl, 140 mM NaCl, pH 8.5, from 4-nitrophenyl acetate, a chromogenic esterase substrate Storage Protect from sources of heat and light. When stored correctly, the enzyme should be stable for 24 months from date of purchase. Exposure to ambient temperatures (20 – 26°C) over 3 days does not result in a reduction of enzymatic activity. Shipping The product should be shipped at 4°C. Handling Ensure that any glass, plastic ware or solvents used with this item are free of environmental carbohydrates. Use powder-free gloves for all sample handling procedures and avoid contamination with environmental carbohydrate. Safety Please read the Safety Data Sheets (SDSs) for all chemicals used. All processes involving labelling reagents should be performed using appropriate personal safety protection – safety glasses, chemically resistant gloves (e.g. nitrile), lab coat, and when appropriate, in a laboratory fume cupboard. For research use only. Not for human or drug use Application Acetyl esterase (sialate-O-acetylesterase) can be used to remove 9-, 8- and 7-O-acetyl groups from released sialic acids, released glycans or glycoproteins.
