            | Description | 
            Recombinant Human Granzyme A is produced with our mammalian expression system in human cells. The target protein is expressed with sequence (Glu27-Val262) of Human GZMA fused with a polyhistidine tag at the C-terminus. |

            | Formulation | 
            Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution of 20mM MES, 150mM NaCl, pH 5.5 | 
        
        
            | Shipping | 
            The product is shipped at ambient temperature. | 
        
        
            | Reconstitution | 
            Always centrifuge tubes before opening. Do not mix by vortex or pipetting. 
            It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/ml. 
            Dissolve the lyophilized protein in 1X PBS. 
            Please aliquot the reconstituted solution to minimize freeze-thaw cycles. | 
        
        
            | Storage | 
            Lyophilized protein should be stored at < -20°C, though stable at room temperature for 3 weeks. 
            Reconstituted protein solution can be stored at 4-7°C for 2-7 days. 
            Aliquots of reconstituted samples are stable at < -20°C for 3 months. | 
        
        
            | Purity | 
            Greater than 95% as determined by SEC-HPLC and reducing SDS-PAGE. | 
        
        
            | Endotoxin | 
            Less than 0.1 ng/μg (1 IEU/μg). |

            | Background | 
            Granzyme A is a member of the Franzyme family. Granzyme A is the most abundant Serine Protease in Cytotoxic T Lymphocytes (CTL) and Natural Killer (NK) cells. Granzyme A has a specifically function in CTL and NK cells. It induces caspase-independent cell death when introduced into target cells by perforin. Human Granzyme A is synthesized as a precursor (262 residues) with a signal peptide (residues 1-26), a propeptide (residues 27-28) and a mature chain (residues 29-262). |
