Human rhinovirus 3C protease (HRV3C Protease) is a cysteine protease that recognizes the cleavage site of Leu-Glu-Val-Leu-Phe-Gln-Gly-Pro, commonly referred to as the PreScission Site. It cleaves between Gln and Gly (independent of Pro). The recombinant form of the HRV3C protease is a restriction grade protease that has robust activity at 4°C with high specific activity and great stability. It does not require any special buffer for its activity and can be used in a buffer most suitable for the target protein. This HRV3C Protease is a 47kD protein with both GST and His tags so it can be easily removed by either Ni-chelating or Glutathione (GSH) resin along with the cleaved tag. Source: Recombinant protein corresponding to human HRV3C Protease, fused to GST and His tags, expressed in E. coli. Molecular Weight: ~47kD
