Native Human CTSS

• Cat.No.: CTSS-27405TH
• Product Overview: Full length native Human Cathepsin S purified from Human Spleen; amino acids 115-331, 217 amino acids, MWt 24 kDa.

Specification

• Species: Human
• Tag: Non
• Protein Length: 115-331 a.a.
• Description: The protein encoded by this gene, a member of the peptidase C1 family, is a lysosomal cysteine proteinase that may participate in the degradation of antigenic proteins to peptides for presentation on MHC class II molecules. The encoded protein can function as an elastase over a broad pH range in alveolar macrophages. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been found for this gene.
• Biological activity: Activity: Cathepsin S activity detected using Z-Val-Val-Arg-AMC
• Form: Lyophilised
• Purity: >95% by SDS-PAGE
• Storage buffer: Preservative: NoneConstituents: 100mM Sodium acetate, 1mM EDTA, pH 5.5
• Storage: Shipped at 4°C. Upon delivery aliquot and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze / thaw cycles.
• Full Length: Full L.
