Introduction
Streptavidin is a tetrameric protein secreted by Streptomyces avidinii which binds firmly to biotin. Streptavidin is wilyde used in molecular biology through its unique high affinity for the vitamin biotin. The dissociation constant (Kd) of the biotin-streptavidin complex is about ~10-15 mol/L. The strong affinity recognition of biotin and biotinylated molecules has made streptavidin one of the most important components in diagnostics and laboratory kits. The streptavidin/biotin system has one of the biggest free energies of association of yet observed for noncovalent binding of a protein and small ligand in aqueous solution (K_assoc = 10**14). The complexes are also extremely stable over a wide range of temperature and pH.
BP002055-PRO-283: Streptavidin Protein
Source: Bacterium Streptomyces avidinii-derived.
Streptavidin Protein 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 55 kDa.
The specific activity of Streptavidin Protein is calculated by its ability to be more than 15.9 U/mg, 1 unit binds 1ugbiotin. The Proteolytic Activity of Streptavidin Protein is Less than 10-3 U/mg protein (Azocoll, 25°C, 24 h, pH 8.0).
Purity: > 95.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
