Introduction
Cathepsin-A (CTSA) is a protective protein which is crucial for both the activity of beta-galactosidase and neuraminidase, CTSA associates with these enzymes and exerts a protective function required for their stability and activity. The CTSA protein is also a carboxypeptidase and can deamidate tachykinins. CTSA is a component of the lysosomal multienzyme complex along with beta-galactosidase and sialidase Neu1. CTSA is a multicatalytic enzyme with deamidase and esterase in addition to carboxypeptidase activities.
Description
|
CTSA produced in Sf9 Insect
cells is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 459 amino acids
(24-474 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 52.4kDa (Molecular size on SDS-PAGE
will appear at approximately 50-70kDa). CTSA is expressed with an 8 amino acid His tag at C-Terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. |
Source
Sf9 Insect cells.
Physical Appearance
Sterile filtered colorless solution.
Formulation
CTSA protein solution (0.5mg/ml) contains phosphate buffered saline (pH7.4) and 10% glycerol.
Stability
Store at 4°C if entire vial will be used within 2-4 weeks. Store, frozen at -20°C for longer periods of time.
For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).
Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles.
