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 a

Protein Background

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 a
