Recombinant Human CTSA (C-6His)

Description

EnkiLife provides the Recombinant Human CTSA (C-6His) protein,aslo know as Lysosomal protective protein;CTSA;Carboxypeptidase C;Carboxypeptidase L;Cathepsin A, which features high purity, high activity, and high stability. It can be applied in scientific research, biopharmaceuticals, and other fields.Purity:Greater than 95% as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE;Endotoxin Level:<1 EU/µg as determined by LAL test.;Construction:Recombinant Human Cathepsin A is produced by our Mammalian expression system and the target gene encoding Ala29-Tyr480 is expressed with a 6His tag at the C-terminus.Accession:P10619. Expression Host:Human Cells.Species:Human.Predicted Molecular Mass:52.2 KDa. Background:Cathepsin A is active in cellular compartments called lysosomes. These compartments contain enzymes that digest and recycle materials when they are no longer needed. Cathepsin A interacts with the enzymes β-galactosidase and neuraminidase 1, which play a role in the breakdown of complexes of sugar molecules (oligosaccharides) attached to certain proteins (glycoproteins) or fats (glycolipids). Cathepsin A forms a complex with these two enzymes and directs their transport within the cell to the lysosomes. Within lysosomes, cathepsin A activates the enzymes and prevents their breakdown.
