| HEMOCYANIN, KEYHOLE LIMPET Usage And Synthesis |
| Uses | Hemocyanin from Limulus polyphemus hemolymph has been used:- in electrophoretic field gradient focusing as a reference standard for optimizing fluorescence quenching for noncolored proteins
- as standard protein for pH based crystallization screening experiments
- in peptide conjugation studies
| | Uses | Keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) is a strong and well known immune-stimulant in both experimental animals and humans. It has been used as a hapten carrier protein to enhance antigen-specific T cell priming and is known to stimulate a CD4+ T-cell response.Hemocyanin was used to study if antipeptide antibodies specifically recognize the l1 protein of the human papilloma virus of type 31. It was also used to study the acid-induced unfolding of didecameric keyhole limpet hemocyanin. | | General Description | Gastropod hemocyanins are massive glycoproteins (4 to 8 MDa) designed by an intricate arrangement of 10 subunits that are self-assembled into hollow cylinders 35 nm in diameter. | | Biochem/physiol Actions | The largest hemocyanin molecules consisting of 48 (8 × 6) subunits are present in horseshoe crabs (Limulus polyphemus) have up to eight distinct subunits type (6 × subunit type I, 8 × II, 2 × IIA, 8 × IIIA, 8 × IIIB, 8 × IV, 4 × V, 4 × VI). |
