Serpin F2 is a member of the Serpin superfamily and the primary physiological inhibitor of the serine protease plasmin, which is responsible for the dissolution of fibrin clots (1, 2). In addition to plasmin, Serpin F2 is also an efficient inhibitor of trypsin and chymotrypsin (3). Liver and kidney are major sites of Serpin F2 production and other tissues such as muscle, intestine, central nervous system, and placenta also express its mRNA at a moderate level. The tissue expression pattern of Serpin F2 indicates that it is a key regulator of plasmin-mediated proteolysis in these tissues (4). Human Serpin F2 is synthesized as a 491 amino acid precursor with a 27 amino acid signal peptide. The secreted protein has a short propeptide (residues 28-39) and a mature chain (residues 40-491). The presence of the propeptide did not affect its ability to inhibit plasmin but reduced its cross-linking ability to fibrin (5).

Protocols
View specific protocols for Recombinant Human Serpin F2/alpha 2-Antiplasmin Protein, CF (1470-PI):
- Assay Buffer: 50 mM Tris, 10 mM CaCl2, 150 mM NaCl, 0.05% (w/v) Brij-35, pH 7.5 (TCNB)
- Recombinant Human Serpin F2/ alpha 2‑Antiplasmin (rhSerpin F2 (Catalog # 1470-PI)
- Trypsin (Sigma, Catalog # T-1426)
- Substrate: MCA-Arg-Pro-Lys-Pro-Val-Glu-NVAL-Trp-Arg-Lys(DNP)-NH2 (Catalog # ES002), 2 mM stock in DMSO
- F16 Black Maxisorp Plate (Nunc, Catalog # 475515)
- Fluorescent Plate Reader (Model: SpectraMax Gemini EM by Molecular Devices) or equivalent
- Dilute Trypsin to 0.25 µg/mL in Assay Buffer and KEEP ON ICE.
- Prepare a curve of rhSerpin F2 (MW: 53,056 Da) in Assay Buffer. Make the following serial dilutions: 600, 200, 100, 50, 30, 20, 15, 10, 5 and 1 nM.
- Combine equal volumes of 0.25 µg/mL Trypsin and rhSerpin F2 serial dilutions. Include two enzyme controls of equal volumes of Assay Buffer and 0.25 µg/mL Trypsin.
- Incubate reaction mixtures at 37 °C for 15 minutes.
- Dilute incubated reaction mixtures by 1/5 in Assay Buffer.
- Dilute Substrate to 20 µM with Assay Buffer.
- In a plate load 50 µL of the diluted reaction mixtures, and start the reaction by adding 50 µL of 20 µM Substrate to wells.
- Read at excitation and emission wavelengths of 320 nm and 405 nm (top read), respectively, in kinetic mode for 5 minutes.
- Derive the 50% inhibition concentration (IC50) for rhSerpin F2 by plotting RFU/min (or specific activity) vs. concentration with 4-PL fitting.
- The specific activity for Trypsin at each point may be determined using the following formula (if needed):
|
Specific Activity (pmol/min/µg) = |
Adjusted Vmax* (RFU/min) x Conversion Factor** (pmol/RFU) |
| amount of enzyme (µg) |
*Adjusted for Substrate Blank
**Derived using calibration standard MCA-Pro-Leu-OH (Bachem, Catalog # M-1975).
