Description
Lambda Protein Phosphatase ( l-PPase) is a Mn2+-dependent protein phosphatase with activity towards phosphorylated serine, threonine and tyrosine residues. It is the 221 amino-acid product of the ORF221 open reading frame on bacteriophage lambda (1,2).
Functional full-length recombinant λProtein Phosphatase (λ-PPase) expressed in E.coli. It is a Mn+2-dependent protein phosphatase with activity towards phosphorylated serine, threonine, tyrosine and histidine residues. It is the 221 amino-acid product of ORF221 open reading frame on bacteriophage lambda (1, 2). This product is an intact enzyme of high quality without tag.
Applications
λ-PPase can be used to release phosphate groups from phosphorylated serine, threonine, tyrosine and histidine residues in proteins (2). It should be noted that different proteins are dephosphorylated at different rates. Optimal reaction temperature is 30℃. Inclusion of protease inhibitor cocktail and shortest incubation time is desired when assays are done with crude samples.
400 U/ul, where one unit is defined as the amount of enzyme that hydrolyzes 1 nmole of p-nitrophenyl phosphate per minute at 30℃. Unit definition assays are performed with 50mM p-nitrophenyl phosphate in λ-PPase buffer, supplemented with 2 mM MnCl2 in a 50 ul reaction.

Fig.2 Dephosphorylation of phospho -NPM1 protein by incubation with λprotein phosphatase in vitro. HeLa cells treated with Nocodazole was lysed, and NPM1 protein was immunoprecipited with anti-NPM1 antibody. The precipitate was suspended in 50 ul of λ protein phosphatase reaction buffer added with 5 ul of the protein phosphatase and incubated at 30℃ for the indicated time (min). The reaction products were analyzed by western blotting.
