Bacteroides Heparinase II (also called Heparin Lyase II) is cloned from Bacteroides eggerthii. It is a low specificity enzyme that is active on both heparin and heparan sulfate.

Bacteroides Heparinase II cleaves the glycosidic bond between N-sulfated and glucuronic or iduronic acid residues. The reaction yields oligosaccharide products containing unsaturated uronic acids which can be detected by UV spectroscopy at 232 nm.

When used alone this enzyme rarely yields complete depolymerization of a polysaccharide chain, however disaccharide analysis is enhanced when used in combination with Heparinase I and III.

• Recombinant enzyme with no detectable glycosidase, sulfatase or uronidase contaminating activities
• ≥95% purity, as determined by SDS-PAGE and intact ESI-MS
• Optimal activity and stability for up to 12 months when stored in solution at -80°C

Reaction Conditions

1X Bacteroides Heparinase Reaction Buffer
Incubate at 30°C

Storage Buffer

20 mM Tris-HCl
100 mM NaCl
1 mM EDTA
5 mM CaCl2
pH 7.5 @ 25°C

Heat Inactivation

100°C for 1 minute

Molecular Weight

Unit Assay Conditions

Two fold dilutions of Bacteroides Heparinase II are incubated with 1 mg/ml porcine mucosal heparin substrate in 1X Bacteroides Heparinase Reaction Buffer, in a 100 μl reaction. The reaction mix is incubated at 30°C. Liberation of unsaturated oligosaccharides is detected by real-time UV spectroscopy at 232 nm.

Notes
  • Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
  • Reaction Conditions:
    1. Combine 10 μl of 1 mg/ml heparin substrate, 10 μl Bacteroides Heparinase Reaction Buffer and H2O in a total reaction volume of 100 μl. 
    2. Add 1 μl Bacteroides Heparinase II.
    3.  Incubate reaction at 30°C for 1–24 hours (monitor absorbance at 232 nm for determination of partial or complete digestion). 
    Optimal incubation times and enzyme concentrations must be determined empirically for a particular substrate.
FAQs
Tech Tips

  • Heparinase II has a broad specificity and cleaves domains of both high and low sulfation on both heparin and HS.

    Bacteroides Heparinase II is most active between pH 7.0 - 8.0.

    Bacteroides Heparinase II is calcium dependent and has greatest activity in the presence of 1.5 - 5mM CaCl2.

    Bacteroides Heparinase II can be used in double digests with Bacteroides Heparinase I and III using the Heparinase reaction buffer.
