Related Product Information for anti-CTSK antibody
Description: CTSK(cathepsin K), also named as CTSO, CTSO2, is a recently identified lysosomal cysteine proteinase. CTSK is synthesized as a proenzyme of 38 kDa and subsequently enters acidic lysosomal compartments, in which the propeptide is cleaved and transformed into an active enzyme and it may influence adipocyte differentiation through modifying extracellularmatrixcomponents(PMID:16912123). It is revealed both the 46-kDa cathepsin-K precursor and the 30-kDa mature form in mouse bone extracts(PMID:9811821). The high CTSK protein levels are only detected in primary cultured fibroblasts derived from normal and neoplastic breast tissue, where the 37-and 25-kDa bands to be detected correspond to pro-and mature proteins through western blot(PMID:18765527). The full length protein has a signal peptides with 15 amino acids and a propeptide with 99 amino acids. This antibody is specific to CTSK.
Function: Closely involved in osteoclastic bone resorption and may participate partially in the disorder of bone remodeling. Displays potent endoprotease activity against fibrinogen at acid pH. May play an important role in extracellular matrix degradation.
Similarity: Belongs to the peptidase C1 family.

Product Notes
The CTSK ctsk (Catalog #AAA326379) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The CTSK Antibody reacts with Human, Mouse, Rat and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's CTSK can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, ELISA, ICC (Immunocytochemistry), IF (Immunofluorescence), IHC (Immunohistochemistry), WB (Western Blot). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the CTSK ctsk for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "CTSK, Polyclonal Antibody" 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.Precautions
