| Immunogen Region: | 296-345 aa | 
| Specificity: | Cathepsin D Polyclonal Antibody detects endogenous levels of Cathepsin D protein. | 
| Immunogen: | The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from the human Cathepsin D at the amino acid range 296-345 | 
| Post Translational Modifications | N- and O-glycosylated. Undergoes proteolytic cleavage and activation by ADAM30. As well as the major heavy chain which starts at Leu-169, 2 minor forms starting at Gly-170 and Gly-171 have been identified. An additional form starting at Ala-168 has also been identified. | 
| Function | Acid protease active in intracellular protein breakdown. Plays a role in APP processing following cleavage and activation by ADAM30 which leads to APP degradation. Involved in the pathogenesis of several diseases such as breast cancer and possibly Alzheimer disease. |
