Trypsin-ultra, Mass Spectrometry Grade is a serine endopeptidase, which selectively cleaves peptide bonds C-terminal to lysine and arginine residues.  Trypsin-ultra cleaves at Lys-Pro and Arg-Pro bonds at a much slower rate than when Lys and Arg are N-terminal to other residues.

  • Analyze complex proteomes with minimal autolysis
  • Compatible for simultaneous co-digestion with PNGase F (NEB# P0709)
  • Compatible for simultaneous co-digestion with Endoproteinase LysC (NEB# P8109)
  • Suitable for both in-gel and solution digests
  • Supplied in dry format
  • Optimal activity and stability for up to 12 months

Trypsin-ultra™, Mass Spectrometry Grade is a serine endopeptidase. It selectively cleaves peptide bonds C-terminal to lysine and arginine residues (1). Trypsin-ultra is treated with L-(tosylamido-2-phenyl) ethyl chloromethyl ketone (TPCK) to inactivate any remaining chymotryptic activity. It is modified by acetylation of the ε-amino groups of lysine residues to prevent autolysis. Trypsin-ultra (TPCKtreated) cleaves at Lys-Pro and Arg-Pro bonds at a much slower rate than other amino acid residues (2).

Digestion with Trypsin-ultra results in a high number of proteins identified, and sequence coverages as high as 90%

Notes
  • Substrate must be in phosphate-free buffer to prevent calcium precipitation with both reconstituted enzyme and enzyme buffer.
  • Trypsin-ultra, Mass Spectrometry Grade is acetylated on multiple lysine residues. This protein appears as a single band on SDS-PAGE. This sequence is also available at www.neb.com.
  • Storage Conditions: Supplied in dry format from a sodium acetate and calcium chloride buffer. Store at -20°C.
  • Can be stored frozen in solution at -20°C for up to 2 weeks. A decrease in activity will occur if stored in solution. Use only freshly reconstituted protease for best results.
