Human Prostate Acid Phosphatase also known as human prostatic acid phosphatase (PAP, ACP) is alternative marker to Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) for prostate malignancy. Rape investigations will often include testing for the presence of Human prostatic acid phosphatase. Prostatic Acid phosphatase (PAP) is a phosphatase, a type of enzyme, used to free attached phosphate groups from other molecules during digestion. Acid Phosphatase is stored in lysosomes and functions when these fuse with endosomes, which are acidified while they function, therefore, Human Acid Phosphatase has an acid pH optimum below 7.0. Specific Activity: Typically 25 U/mg protein Activity: 200 U/mL Unit Definition: One unit will catalyze the hydrolysis of one micromole of alpha-naphthyl phosphate to alpha-naphthol and phosphate/minute at pH 5.3 and 37C Protein: 1mg protein/mL (Coomassie) Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing.. Store at -20C. Aliquots are stable for 6 months after receipt at -20C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
