---|---|
Other Names | NA, Neuraminidase |
Gene Source | Influenza A Virus |
Source | HEK293 cells |
Assay&Purity | SDS-PAGE; ≥92% |
Assay2&Purity2 | N/A; |
Recombinant | Yes |
Results | Measured by its ability to cleave a fluorogenic substrate, 2'-(4-Methylumbelliferyl)-α-D-N-acetylneuraminic acid. One unit is defined as the amount of enzyme required to cleave 1 nmole of 2'-(4-Methylumbelliferyl)-α-D-N-acetylneuraminic acid per minute at pH 7.5 at 37°C |
Target/Specificity | Influenza A virus / Neuraminidase (NA) |
Application Notes | Centrifuge the vial prior to opening. Reconstitute in PBS, pH 7.4. Do not vortex. |
Format | Lyophilized |
Storage | -20°C; Lyophilized from 0.22 µm filtered solution in PBS, pH 7.4. Normally Mannitol or Trehalose are added as protectants before lyophilization. |

Background
Neuraminidase (NA) and hemagglutinin (HA) are major membrane glycoproteins found on the surface of influenza virus. Hemagglutinin binds to the sialic acid-containing receptors on the surface of host cells during initial infection and at the end of an infectious cycle. Neuraminidase, on the other hand, cleaves the HA-sialic acid bondage from the newly formed virions and the host cell receptors during budding. Neuraminidase thus is described as a receptor-destroying enzyme which facilitates virus release and efficient spread of the progeny virus from cell to cell.
