Human Cathepsin V protein, His tag (active)

9

Measured by its ability to cleave the fluorogenic peptide substrate Z-LR-AMC. The specific activity is > 1000 pmoles/min/microg.

Unconjugated

Lyophilized

The protein encoded by this gene, a member of the peptidase C1 family, is a lysosomal cysteine proteinase that may play an important role in corneal physiology. This gene is expressed in colorectal and breast carcinomas but not in normal colon, mammary gland, or peritumoral tissues, suggesting a possible role for this gene in tumor processes. Alternatively spliced variants, encoding the same protein, have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2011]
