Product Overview

Tag	His
Host Species	Mouse
Accession	NP_031825.2
Synonym	A430072O03Rik, C920004C08Rik, CatE, CE
Background	Cathepsin E Protein (CTSE Protein) is a member of the peptidase C1 family that is a gastric aspartic protease that functions as a disulfide-linked homodimer. Cathepsin E Protein (CTSE Protein) is predominantly present in the cells of immune system and is frequently implicated in antigen processing via the MHC class-…¡ pathway which however does not appear to be involved in the digestion of dietary protein. The protein has a specificity similar to that of pepsin and pepsin. Cathepsin E Protein (CTSE Protein) is found in highest concentration in the surface of epithelial mucus-producing cells of the stomach and also been found in more than half of the gastric cancers. It appears, therefore, to be an oncofetal antigen.
Description	A DNA sequence encoding the extracellular domain of mouse CTSE (NP_031825.2) (Met 1-Pro 397) was expressed, with a His tag at the C-terminus.
Source	HEK293
Predicted N Terminal	Gln 19
AA Sequence	Met 1-Pro 397
Molecular Weight	The secreted recombinant mouse CTSE (pro form) consists of 390 a.a. and has a predicted molecular mass of 42.4 kDa. In SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions, the apparent molecular mass of rmCTSE is approximately 45-48 kDa due to glycosylation.
Purity	>97% as determined by SDS-PAGE
Endotoxin	< 1.0 EU per μg of the protein as determined by the LAL method
Bioactivity	Please contact us for detailed information
Formulation	Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4.
Stability	The recombinant proteins are stable for up to 1 year from date of receipt at -70°C.
Usage	For Research Use Only
Storage	Store the protein under sterile conditions at -20°C to -80°C. It is recommended that the protein be aliquoted for optimal storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
