PreScission Protease (PSP)
PreScission Protease (PSP) is a recombinant fusion enzyme consisting of human rhinovirus type 14 (HRV14) 3C protease fused to glutathione S-transferase (GST), expressed using an E. coli expression system. This enzyme selectively recognizes an octapeptide sequence (Leu-Glu-Val-Leu-Phe-Gln-Gly-Pro) and catalyzes peptide bond cleavage specifically between the glutamine (Gln) and glycine (Gly) residues. Reaction conditions involve incubation at 4°C in buffer systems optimized for protease activity. PreScission Protease (PSP) is a valuable tool in the field of protein purification, used to cleave recombinant proteins expressed as fusion proteins with this sequence between the vector domain and the target protein.
