Cystatin A (CSTA) protein is an intracellular thiol protease inhibitor critical for desmosome-mediated intercellular adhesion, especially in the epidermis. Its role as a protease inhibitor is essential for regulating cellular proteolytic activity. Cystatin A/CSTA Protein, Human (His) is the recombinant human-derived Cystatin A/CSTA protein, expressed by E. coli , with N-6*His labeled tag. The total length of Cystatin A/CSTA Protein, Human (His) is 97 a.a., with molecular weight of ~14.0 kDa.

Cystatin A (CSTA) protein serves as an intracellular thiol proteinase inhibitor and plays a crucial role in desmosome-mediated cell-cell adhesion, particularly in the lower levels of the epidermis. Its function as a proteinase inhibitor underscores its significance in regulating proteolytic activities within cells. Moreover, the specific involvement of CSTA in desmosome-mediated adhesion highlights its essential contribution to the structural integrity and cohesion of epidermal cells. The intricate interplay of CSTA within cellular processes emphasizes its importance in maintaining the functional and structural aspects of the epidermis, particularly in the context of cell adhesion mechanisms.
