Reconstitution :
Please see Certificate of Analysis for specific instructions. For best performance, we strongly recommend you to follow the reconstitution protocol provided in the CoA.
Storage :
For long term storage, the product should be stored at lyophilized state at -20°C or lower. Please avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. This product is stable after storage at:
● -20°C to -70°C for 12 months in lyophilized state;
● -70℃ for 3 months under sterile conditions after reconstitution.
Background :
Cathepsin B (CTSB) is also known as APP secretase (APPS) and CPSB, is an enzymatic protein belonging to the peptidase C1 family. Cathepsin B / CTSB is synthesized as a preproenzyme. Following removal of the signal peptide, the inactive proenzyme undergoes further modifications including removal of the pro region to result in the active enzyme. The catalytic activity of Cathepsin B / APPS contains: Hydrolysis of proteins with broad specificity for peptide bonds; Preferentially cleaves -Arg-Arg- -Xaa bonds in small molecule substrates (thus differing from cathepsin L); In addition to being an endopeptidase, shows peptidyl-dipeptidase activity, liberating C-terminal dipeptides. As a thiol protease, cathepsin B / CPSB is believed to participate in intracellular degradation and turnover of proteins and has also been implicated in tumor invasion and metastasis. Overexpression of cathepsin B has been associated with esophageal adenocarcinoma and other tumors.

company information

ACROBiosystems
ACROBiosystems is a leading manufacturer of recombinant proteins and other critical reagents to support the development of target therapeutics, vaccines and diagnostic kits.
Our team has worked tirelessly since the genomic sequence of SARS-CoV-2 was first published, developing a serial of critical reagents to fight COVID-19. Our team has successfully developed a new neutralizing antibody titer serologic assay kit for COVID-19 vaccine evaluation (Cat.No.TAS-K022) which really showed excellent performance.
As the emerging variants may have impacted on the development of the COVID-19 epidemic, our team is also going full steam ahead on developing a collection of spike mutants for the emerging variants of SARS-COV-2. The reagents can be used to evaluate the efficacy of the antibodies and vaccination.
We have also developed an extensive collection of recombinant proteins to support the development for bispecific antibodies, antibody drug conjugates and cell therapies.
