Data

Immunoblotting:
use at 1-5ug/ml. Bands of 85kDa and 88kDa are detected. Detection of prekallikrein in normal human plasma (Lanes 2 and 3). For comparison, purified human prekallikrein is included in Lane 1.
Western blot validation of the three differentially expressed proteins identified by the iTRAQ-based proteomics approach were performed using the remaining five plasma samples from each of the groups. Significant differences among multiple groups were calculated by one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) followed by Tukey’s Honest Significant Difference test. * means p < 0.05 between the control group and 1 day or 3 day group.

Description

Description

Specificity
This antibody recognizes two variants of prekallikrein in human plasma, 88kDa and 85kDa, and its activation products kallikrein, the complexes formed by kallikrein with its endogenous inhibitors C1 inhibitor, alpha-2-macroglobulin and antithrombin III, and 45kDa prekallikrein/kallikrein fragments. It also recognizes prekallikrein and its activation products in chimpanzee, rhesus, and baboon plasmas. The epitope for this antibody is located on the prekallikrein/kallikrein hevy chain and is involved in the interaction between prekallikrein and factor XIIa. This antibody inhibits prekallikrein activation in human and rhesus plasmas by ~60- 80% and 55%, respectively. This antibody does not cross-react with tissue kallikrein.
Background
Human prekallikrein, a serine protease zymogen, is present in plasma as two variants, 88kDa and 85kDa, probably due to different carbohydrate content. Approximately 75% of the total prekallikrein in plasma is noncovalently associated with high molecular weight kininogen (HMWK). HMWK mediates binding of prekallikrein to a negatively-charged surface which is required for its optimal activation to kallikrein by activated factor XII. Although kallikrein light and heavy chains can behave as functionally independent domains, the interaction between these two chains is essential for full biologic activity.
Function
The enzyme cleaves Lys-Arg and Arg-Ser bonds. It activates, in a reciprocal reaction, factor XII after its binding to a negatively charged surface. It also releases bradykinin from HMW kininogen and may also play a role in the renin-angiotensin system by converting prorenin into renin.
