Description
CTSZ produced in Sf9 Baculovirus cells is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 288 amino acids (24-303.a.) and having a molecular mass of 32.5kDa. (Molecular size on SDS-PAGE will appear at approximately 28-40kDa).
Introduction
Cathepsin-Z (CTSZ) is a lysosomal cysteine proteinase and a member of the peptidase C1 family. CTSZ, which is known also as cathepsin X and cathepsin P, exhibits carboxy-monopeptidase and carboxy-dipeptidase activities. CTSZ is expressed ubiquitously in cancer cell lines and primary tumors and as other members of this family, takes part in tumorigenesis.
Purification Method
/
Physical Appearance
Sterile Filtered clear solution.
Formulation
CTSZ protein solution (0.5mg/ml) contains 10% glycerol & Phosphate Buffered Saline (pH 7.4).
Stability
Store at 4°C if entire vial will be used within 2-4 weeks. Store, frozen at -20°C for longer periods of time. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). Please avoid freeze thaw cycles.
