Product Description: IgG-Cutter
TM is a recombinant IgG endoproteinase (Mac/IdeS) from
Streptococcus pyogenes. It can specifically cleaves peptide bonds in the hinge region of IgG to form Fc and F(ab’)2 fragments. IgG-Cutter
TM cleaves all subclasses of human, rabbit, sheep, and monkey IgG with a high efficiency. In addition, IgG-Cutter
TM can cleave IgG2a and IgG3 of mouse IgG.
Product Source: IgG-Cutter
TM was produced in E. Coli cells transformed with Mac/IdeS gene. This product is sterile and does not contain any components of
animal origin. Catalog # | Size | Concentration | price |

Background: IgG-Cutter
TM is recombinant IgG endoproteinase (Mac/IdeS) from S
treptococcus pyogenes. The complete genome sequencing of M1 group A
Streptococcus (GAS) was done in 2001 (Ferretti 2001). To our knowledge, Mac/IdeS was first identified in group A
Streptococcus (GAS) infected mice and human sera as a homologous protein to Human Mac-1 at NIH (Lei 2000). Mac/IdeS was later found to promote inhibition of opsonophagocytosis, enhancement of pathogen survival, and establishment of infection and dissemination (Lei 2001). Several groups later characterized Mac/IdeS’s IgG endoproteinase activity, and found it to cleave peptide bonds in the hinge region of IgG (von Pawel-Rammingen 2002, Lei 2002).
