Packaging, Storage & Formulations

• Storage: This product is stable at ≤ ‑70 °C for up to 1 year from the date of receipt. For optimal storage, aliquot into smaller quantities after centrifugation and store at recommended temperature. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
• Buffer: Supplied in 50 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.5), 150 mM NaCl, 0.25 mM DTT, 0.1 mM EGTA, 0.1 mM EDTA, 0.1 mM PMSF, and 25% glycerol.
• Purity: >90%, by SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions and visualized by Colloidal Coomassie® Blue stain at 5 μg per lane.
• Assay Procedure:
  • Active Kinase - Active Lyn B (0.1 μg/μL) diluted with Kinase Dilution Buffer. Note: These are suggested working dilutions. Optimal dilutions should be determined by each laboratory for each application.
  • Kinase Assay Buffer I, pH 7.2 - 25 mM MOPS, 12.5 mM beta -glycerolphosphate, 25 mM MgCl₂, 5 mM EGTA, 2 mM EDTA. Add 0.25 mM DTT to the Kinase Assay Buffer prior to use.
  • Kinase Dilution Buffer, pH 7.2 - Kinase Assay Buffer I diluted 5-fold with distilled or deionized water.
  • 10 mM ATP Stock Solution - Prepare the ATP Stock Solution by dissolving 55 mg of ATP in 10 mL of Kinase Assay Buffer I. Store 200 μL aliquots at ≤ -20° C.
  • [³²P]-ATP Assay Cocktail - Prepare 250 μM [³²P]-ATP Assay Cocktail in a designated radioactive work area by combining 150 μL of 10 mM ATP Stock Solution, 100 μL of [³²P]-ATP (1 mCi/100 μL), and 5.75 mL of Kinase Assay Buffer I. Store 1 mL aliquots at ≤ -20° C.
  • Substrate - Src synthetic peptide substrate (KVEKIGEGTYGVVYK) diluted in distilled or deionized water to a final concentration of 1 mg/mL.
  1. Thaw the [³²P]-ATP Assay Cocktail in a shielded container in a designated radioactive work area.
  2. Thaw the Active Lyn B, Kinase Assay Buffer I, Substrate, and Kinase Dilution Buffer on ice.
  3. In a pre-cooled microfuge tube, add the following reaction components bringing the initial reaction volume up to 20 μL.
     a. Diluted Active Lyn B: 10 μL
     b. Substrate (1 mg/mL; on ice): 10 μL
  4. Set up the blank control as outlined in step 3, excluding the addition of the substrate. Replace the substrate with an equal volume of distilled or deionized water.
  5. Initiate the reaction with the addition of 5 μL [³²P]-ATP Assay Cocktail, bringing the final volume up to 25 μL. Incubate the mixture in a water bath at 30 °C for 15 minutes.
  6. After the 15 minute incubation, terminate the reaction by spotting 20 μL of the reaction mixture onto individual pre-cut strips of phosphocellulose P81 paper.
  7. Air dry the pre-cut P81 strip and sequentially wash in a 1% phosphoric acid solution (add 10 mL of phosphoric acid to 990 mL of distilled or deionized water) with constant gentle stirring. It is recommended that the strips be washed a total of three times for approximately 10 minutes each.
  8. Count the radioactivity on the P81 paper in the presence of scintillation fluid in a scintillation counter.
  9. Determine the corrected cpm by subtracting the blank control value (see step 4) for each sample and calculate the kinase specific activity as outlined below.
     
     
     Calculation of [³²P]-ATP Specific Activity (SA) (cpm/pmol)
     Specific Activity (SA) = cpm for 5 μL [³²P]-ATP/pmol of ATP (in 5 μL of a 250 μM ATP stock solution; i.e. 1250 pmol)
     
     Calculation of Kinase Specific Activity (SA) (pmol/minutes/μg or nmol/minutes/mg)
     Corrected cpm from reaction / [(SA of ³²P-ATP in cpm/pmol) x (Reaction time in minutes) x (Enzyme amount in μg or mg)] x [(Reaction volume) / (Spot Volume)]

Background

Lyn B is a tyrosine kinase that is similar to mouse T-lymphocyte-specific tyrosine kinase p56lck, v-yes, v-fgr, and v src and is expressed in a variety of tissues (1). Lyn B is expressed preferentially in B cells and can be co-immunoprecipitated with IgM suggesting that Lyn B is physically associated with membrane-bound IgM, and participates in antigen-mediated signal transduction (2). Cross-linking of membrane-bound IgM with antibody induces a rapid increase in activities of Lyn B and
Lyn-associated phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase.
