CTSZ Antibody

Data sheet

Clone

PAT6G11AT.

Applications

The antibody has been tested by ELISA, Western blot analysis to assure specificity and reactivity. Since application varies, however, each investigation should be titrated by the reagent to obtain optimal results. Recommended starting dilution is 1:1000.

Protein Background

Cathepsin-Z (CTSZ) is a lysosomal cysteine proteinase and member of the peptidase C1 family. CTSZ, which has been also known as cathepsin X and cathepsin P, exhibits carboxy-monopeptidase and carboxy-dipeptidase activities. CTSZ is expressed ubiquitously

Synonyms

Cathepsin Z preproprotein, Cathepsin Z, CTSX, Cathepsin P, Cathepsin X, CTSZ, Cathepsin-Z.

Reagent Appearance

Sterile filtered colorless solution.

Type

Mouse Anti Human Monoclonal.

Immunogen
