Analysis Note

Acetylcholinesterase is measured according to Ellman, et al.

Application

Phospholipase C, Phosphatidylinositol-specific from Bacillus cereus has been used to cleave GPI-anchored protein from green fluorescent protein- glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GFP-GPI) from the cell membrane. It has also been used in invasion assay to test the involvement of PLAP in T. cruzi invasion to human epithelial type 2 (HEp-2) cells.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Used for the release of GPI anchored proteins from the membrane.

General description

Phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC) from Bacillus cereus is a 298 residual protein. It belongs to the class of ubiquitous enzymes. PI-PLC is characterized with a single globular domain and it folds into eight (βα) barrel sheets, out of which only six βα units are found in barrel, lacking helices between strands IV and V and V and VI.

Other Notes

One unit will liberate one unit of acetylcholinesterase per minute from a membrane-bound crude preparation at pH 7.4 at 30 °C (10 minute incubation).

Physical form

Contains phosphate buffer salts, EDTA and stabilizer
