Related Product Information for mCTSZ active protein
Introduction: Cathepsin-Z (CTSZ) is a lysosomal cysteine proteinase and a member of the peptidase C1 family. CTSZ, which is known also as cathepsin X and cathepsin P, exhibits carboxy-monopeptidase and carboxy-dipeptidase activities. CTSZ is expressed ubiquitously in cancer cell lines and primary tumors and as other members of this family, takes part in tumorigenesis.

Description: CTSZ Mouse Recombinant produced in Baculovirus is a single, glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 292 amino acids (23-306 aa) and having a molecular mass of 32.8kDa.CTSZ is fused to a 8 amino acid His tag at C-terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.

NCBI Description

This gene encodes a member of the peptidase C1 (papain) family of cysteine proteases. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate a mature enzyme with carboxypeptidase activity. An enzymatically inactive form of the protein, that is associated with the propeptide, may be involved in cancer cell invasion and proliferation. Homozygous knockout mice for this gene exhibit impaired cancer cell invasion in a breast cancer model. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2015]

Product Notes

The mCTSZ ctsz (Catalog #AAA141500) is an Active Protein produced from Sf9, Baculovirus Cells and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The amino acid sequence is listed below: Amino acid: ARARLYFRSG QTCYHPIRGD QLALLGRRTY PRPHEYLSPA DLPKNWDWRN VNGVNYASVT RNQHIPQYCG SCWAHGSTSA MADRINIKRK GAWPSILLSV QNVIDCGNAG SCEGGNDLPV WEYAHKHGIP DETCNNYQAK DQDCDKFNQC GTCTEFKECH TIQNYTLWRV GDYGSLSGRE KMMAEIYANG PISCGIMATE MMSNYTGGIY AEHQDQAVIN HIISVAGWGV SNDGIEYWIV RNSWGEPWGE KGWMRIVTST YKGGTGDSYN LAIESACTFG DPIVLEHHHH HH. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Cathepsin-Z, Active Protein" 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.
