Relevance |
Interferes with neuromuscular transmission by inhibiting the enzyme acetylcholinesterase (AChE) present at the neuromuscular junction. It selectively binds and inhibits with a 1:1 stoichiometry the mammalian and electric fish AChE at picomolar concentrations. It is highly specific for the peripheral site of AChE and blocks the entry of acetylcholine into the active site of the enzyme (through the Met-33 residue), thereby preventing its breakdown. It has been called fasciculin since after injection into mice it causes severe, generalized and long-lasting (5-7 hours) fasciculations. |

Purity |
Greater than 90% as determined by SDS-PAGE. |
Storage Buffer |
Tris-based buffer, 50% glycerol |
Storage |
The shelf life is related to many factors, storage state, buffer ingredients, storage temperature and the stability of the protein itself. Generally, the shelf life of liquid form is 6 months at -20C/-80C. The shelf life of lyophilized form is 12 months at -20C/-80C. |
Notes |
Repeated freezing and thawing is not recommended. Store working aliquots at 4C for up to one week. |
Function |
