NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
The protein encoded by this gene is a lysosomal cysteine proteinase involved in bone remodeling and resorption. This protein, which is a member of the peptidase C1 protein family, is predominantly expressed in osteoclasts. However, the encoded protein is also expressed in a significant fraction of human breast cancers, where it could contribute to tumor invasiveness. Mutations in this gene are the cause of pycnodysostosis, an autosomal recessive disease characterized by osteosclerosis and short stature. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2013]
Uniprot Description
CTSK: Closely involved in osteoclastic bone resorption and may participate partially in the disorder of bone remodeling. Displays potent endoprotease activity against fibrinogen at acid pH. May play an important role in extracellular matrix degradation. Defects in CTSK are the cause of pycnodysostosis (PKND). PKND is an autosomal recessive osteochondrodysplasia characterized by osteosclerosis and short stature. Belongs to the peptidase C1 family.

Product Notes
The CTSK ctsk (Catalog #AAA2028160) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Polyclonal Antibody to Cathepsin K (CTSK) reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's Cathepsin K can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB), Immunocytochemistry (ICC), Immunohistochemistry (IHC) Formalin/Paraffin, ELISA (EIA). Western blotting: 1-5ug/mL Immunocytochemistry in formalin fixed cells: 5-20ug/mL Immunohistochemistry in formalin fixed frozen section: 5-20ug/mL Immunohistochemistry in paraffin section: 5-20ug/mL Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assay: 0.05-2ug/mL Optimal working dilutions must be determined by end user. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the CTSK ctsk for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Cathepsin K, Polyclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
