Short Description: Recombinant-Human Cathepsin D-C-His protein was developed from hek293 cells and has a target region of C-His. For use in research applications.
Formulation: Lyophilized from a 0.22 Mu m filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4. Contact us for customized product form or formulation.
Immunoreactivity: Measured by its ability to cleave the fluorogenic peptide substrate, Mca-PLGL-Dpa-AR-NH2. The specific activity is >747 pmol/min/Mu g.
Gene Symbol: CTSD
Gene ID: 1509
Uniprot ID: CATD_HUMAN
Immunogen Region: Leu21-Leu412
Immunogen: Recombinant Human Cathepsin D Protein is produced by HEK293 cells expression system. The target protein is expressed with sequence (Leu21-Leu412) of human Cathepsin D/CTSD (Accession #NP_001900.1) fused with a 6×His tag at the C-terminus.
Tissue Specificity Expressed in the aorta extracellular space (at protein level). Expressed in liver (at protein level).
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.
