| Description | Urokinase is a two-chain glycoprotein containing 411 amino acids with 12 disulfide bonds. Its molecular weight is 54,000 Dalton. |
| Expression host | Human urine. |
| Formulation | The Urokinase was lyophilized from a concentrated (1mg/ml) solution containing phosphate buffer. |
| Protein Background | Urokinase (UK) is a serine protease, which is one of biological plasminogen activators. It is involved in a number of biological functions including fibrinolysis, embryogenesis, cell migration, tissue remodeling, ovulation, and wound healing. It can be obtained from human urine or kidney cell culture. |
| Purity | Greater than 94.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE. |
| Reagent Appearance | Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder. |

| Solubility | It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Urokinase in sterile 18M-cm H2O not less than 100ug/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions. |
| Specific Activity | 174,827IU/mg. |
| Stability | Lyophilized Urokinase although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution Urokinase should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C.Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
