TrypsINATOR™ – Arginine- and Lysine-specific Protein Digestion

TrypsINATOR (Trypsin) is a serine protease that digests proteins C-terminally of arginine and lysine residues.

SmartEnzymes™

TrypsINATOR is recombinantly produced to high purity and is ideally suited for mass spectrometry-based proteomics applications. Additionally, the enzyme supports peptide mapping, de novo sequencing, and characterization of post-translational modifications.

TrypsINATOR is available as a single enzyme (TrypsINATOR Lyophilized) or pre-mixed in combination with LysCERATOR (TrypsINATOR LysCERATOR Mix Lyophilized).

About TrypsINATOR™

TrypsINATOR (Trypsin) is a recombinantly produced serine protease that specifically digests peptide bonds C-terminally to arginine and lysine residues.

TrypsINATOR is highly efficient and facilitates consistent and specific cleavage while minimizing missed cleavages. TrypsINATOR is reductively methylated at lysine residues to minimize autoproteolysis, increase stability and ensure consistent performance, even during extended incubations. By combining TrypsINATOR with LysCERATOR, the TrypsINATOR LysCERATOR Mix offers enhanced digestion efficiency at lysine residues to further reduce missed cleavages, while offering improved digestion at challenging lysine-proline (K-P) sites. TrypsINATOR and TrypsINATOR LysCERATOR Mix are compatible with standard digestion buffers, including Tris-HCl, ammonium bicarbonate, HEPES, PBS and TEAB. TrypsINATOR is optimally active in a pH range of 7.0 – 9.0, and TrypsINATOR LysCERATOR Mix has an optimal pH range of 6.0 – 10.0.

FAQ and Support

Yes, both TrypsINATOR and TrypsINATOR LysCERATOR Mix are active down to pH 5, however, with a lower digestion efficiency.
