General description
Purified Proteinase K DNA free SAE0151 undergoes strict quality control testing to ensure the absence of detectable levels of contaminating DNA using 35 cycles PCR amplification of 16S and 18S rDNA using universal primer sets.
Proteinase K is a stable serine protease with broad substrate specificity. It degrades many proteins in the native state even in the presence of detergents. Proteinase K was isolated from a fungus able to grow on keratin and the enzyme can digest native keratin. The enzyme belongs to the subtilisin family with an active site catalytic triad (Asp39 -His69 -Ser224).
The predominant site of cleavage is the peptide bond adjacent to the carboxyl group of aliphatic and aromatic amino acids with blocked alpha amino groups. It is commonly used for its broad specificity. Proteinase K is usually denatured by subsequent phenol extractions.
The study of microbial communities has been revolutionized in recent years by the widespread adoption of culture independent analytical techniques such as 16S rRNA gene sequencing and metagenomics. Since DNA contamination during sample preparation is a major problem of these sequence-based approaches, DNA extraction reagents free of DNA contaminates are essential.

- Proteinase K is frequently used in molecular biology applications to digest unwanted proteins, such as nucleases from DNA or RNA preparations from microorganisms, cultured cells, and plants.
- Removes endotoxins that bind to cationic proteins such as lysozyme and ribonuclease A useful for the isolation of hepatic, yeast, and mung bean mitochondria.
- Determination of enzyme localization on membranes
- Treatment of paraffin embedded tissue sections to expose antigen binding sites for antibody labeling.
- Digestion of proteins from brain tissue samples for prions in Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathies (TSE) research.
Biochem/physiol Actions
La proteinasa K es una serín proteasa estable y muy reactiva. La evidencia procedente de estudios de la estructura cristalina y molecular indica que la enzima pertenece a la familia subtilisina con una tríada catalítica en el sitio activo (ASP39-HIS69-ser224). Es estable en una amplia variedad de entornos: pH, sales amortiguadoras, detergentes (SDS) y temperatura. En presencia de SDS al 0,1 - 0,5 %, la proteinasa K conserva su actividad y digerirá una variedad de proteínas y nucleasas en preparaciones de ADN sin comprometer la integridad del ADN aislado.
Features and Benefits
Purified Proteinase K DNA free SAE0151 undergoes strict quality control testing to ensure it will be free of DNA contaminants, suitable for Microbiome research.
Unit Definition
One unit will hydrolyze urea denatured hemoglobin to produce color equivalent to 1.0 micromole of tyrosine per minute at pH 7.5, 37°C (color per Folin-Ciocalteu reagent).
Preparation Note
Proteinase K is active in 1% Triton X-100 and in 0.5% (w/v) SDS. SDS and urea will denature protein substrates resulting in increased digestion rates. Proteinase K itself is denatured much more slowly by these agents.

Enzymes provide a non-mechanical method for cell lysis and protoplast preparation. It may seem like a simple process to throw in your enzyme, stick your tube in the water-bath and walk away, but what is actually going on in that process?
