| Short Description : | Recombinant-Mouse Cathepsin S-protein was developed from hek293. For use in research applications. |
| Host: | HEK293 |
| Note: | STRICTLY FOR FURTHER RESEARCH USE ONLY (RUO). MUST NOT TO BE USED IN DIAGNOSTIC OR THERAPEUTIC APPLICATIONS. |
| Conjugation: | Unconjugated |
| Dilution Range: | Spin the vial and reconstite in distilled water to a concentration not less than 0.1 mg/mL. This can then be diluted into other buffers. |
| Formulation: | Lyophilised from 0.2 Mu m filtered PBS solution, pH7.2, 5% Trehalose. |
| Storage Instruction: | Can be stored in working aliquots at 2°C-8°C C for one month, or at-20°C to-70°C for 1 year. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles. NA |
| Endotoxin: | Endotoxin content was assayed using a LAL gel clot method. Endotoxin level was found to be less than 0.1 ng/µg (1EU/µg). NA |
| Immunoreactivity: | The activity was tested by the ability to cleave a flourogenic substrate, the measured activity is 300 pmole/ug/min NA |
| Gene Symbol: | Ctss |
| Gene ID: | 13040 |
| Uniprot ID: | CATS_MOUSE |
| Immunogen: | Optimized DNA sequence encoding mature chain of mouse Cathepsin S-CatS (GLN17-ILE331) including a C-terminal His tag was expressed in HEK293 cells. NA |
| Immunogen Region: | GLN17-ILE331 |
| Tissue Specificity | Widely expressed with highest expression found in non-skeletal tissues. Relatively high levels found in skeletal tissues. Expressed in spleen, B cells, dendritic cells and macrophages. |
| Function | Thiol protease. Key protease responsible for the removal of the invariant chain from MHC class II molecules and MHC class II antigen presentation. The bond-specificity of this proteinase is in part similar to the specificities of cathepsin L. |
