Principle of the Assay: CTSC ELISA kit applies the competitive enzyme immunoassay technique utilizing a monoclonal anti-CTSC antibody and an CTSC-HRP conjugate. The assay sample and buffer are incubated together with CTSC-HRP conjugate in pre-coated plate for one hour. After the incubation period, the wells are decanted and washed five times. The wells are then incubated with a substrate for HRP enzyme. The product of the enzyme-substrate reaction forms a blue colored complex. Finally, a stop solution is added to stop the reaction, which will then turn the solution yellow. The intensity of color is measured spectrophotometrically at 450nm in a microplate reader. The intensity of the color is inversely proportional to the CTSC concentration since CTSC from samples and CTSC-HRP conjugate compete for the anti-CTSC antibody binding site. Since the number of sites is limited, as more sites are occupied by CTSC from the sample, fewer sites are left to bind CTSC-HRP conjugate. A standard curve is plotted relating the intensity of the color (O.D.) to the concentration of standards. The CTSC concentration in each sample is interpolated from this standard curve.

NCBI Description

The protein encoded by this gene, a member of the peptidase C1 family, is a lysosomal cysteine proteinase that appears to be a central coordinator for activation of many serine proteinases in immune/inflammatory cells. It is composed of a dimer of disulfide-linked heavy and light chains, both produced from a single protein precursor, and a residual portion of the propeptide acts as an intramolecular chaperone for the folding and stabilization of the mature enzyme. This enzyme requires chloride ions for activity and can degrade glucagon. Defects in the encoded protein have been shown to be a cause of Papillon-Lefevre syndrome, an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by palmoplantar keratosis and periodontitis. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Uniprot Description

CTSC: Thiol protease. Has dipeptidylpeptidase activity. Active against a broad range of dipeptide substrates composed of both polar and hydrophobic amino acids. Proline cannot occupy the P1 position and arginine cannot occupy the P2 position of the substrate. Can act as both an exopeptidase and endopeptidase. Activates serine proteases such as elastase, cathepsin G and granzymes A and B. Can also activate neuraminidase and factor XIII. Defects in CTSC are a cause of Papillon-Lefevre syndrome (PLS); also known as keratosis palmoplantaris with periodontopathia. PLS is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by palmoplantar keratosis and severe periodontitis affecting deciduous and permanent dentitions and resulting in premature tooth loss. The palmoplantar keratotic phenotype vary from mild psoriasiform scaly skin to overt hyperkeratosis. Keratosis also affects other sites such as elbows and knees. Defects in CTSC are a cause of Haim-Munk syndrome (HMS); also known as keratosis palmoplantaris with periodontopathia and onychogryposis or Cochin Jewish disorder. HMS is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by palmoplantar keratosis, onychogryphosis and periodontitis. Additional features are pes planus, arachnodactyly, and acroosteolysis. Defects in CTSC are a cause of aggressive periodontititis type 1 (AP1); also known as juvenile periodontitis (JPD) and prepubertal periodontitis (PPP). AP1 is characterized by severe and protracted gingival infections, leading to tooth loss. AP1 inheritance is autosomal dominant. Belongs to the peptidase C1 family. 3 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.
