Cyclophilin H (also known as peptidylpropyl isomerase H, PPIH) is a member of peptidyl-propyl cis-trans isomerase (PPIase) family, which catalyzes the cis-trans isomerization of proline imidic peptide bonds in oligopeptides and accelerates the folding of proteins. The cyclophilin H is a specific component of the human U4/U6 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein particle involved in the nuclear splicing of pre-mRNA. It stably associates with the U4/U6-60kD and - 90kD proteins, the human orthologues of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae Prp4 and Prp3 splicing factors.

Source:
Recombinant protein corresponding to aa1-177 from human Cyclophilin H, expressed in E. coli.

Molecular Weight:
~19.2kD (177aa)

Specific Activity:
>220 nmoles/min/mg, and is defined as the amount of enzyme that cleaves 1umole of suc-AAFP-pNA/minute at 25°C in Tris-Hcl, pH 8.0, using chymotrypsin.

Activity Assay:
1. Prepare 170ul assay buffer into a suitable container and pre-chill on ice before use: The final concentrations are 200mM Tris-Hcl, pH 8.0, and 20nM chymotrypsin.
2. Add 10ul of recombinant Cyclophikin H (PPIH) protein with 1ug in assay buffer.
3. Mix by inversion and equilibrate to 1C and monitor the A405nm until the value is constant using a spectrophotometer.
4. Add 20ul pre-chilled 5mM suc-AAFP-pNA. (Substrate was dissolved in TFE that contained 460mM LiCl to a concentration of 3mM)
5. Record the increase in A405 nm for 30 minutes at 25°C.
