products description :
Background/Introduction: This Quantitative Sandwich ELISA kit is only for in vitro research use only, not for drug, household, therapeutic or diagnostic applications! This kit is intended to be used for determination the level of CTSK (hereafter termed "analyte") in undiluted original Human body fluids, tissue homogenates, secretions or feces samples. This kit is NOT suitable for assaying non-biological sources of substances.

ncbi summary :
The protein encoded by this gene is a lysosomal cysteine proteinase involved in bone remodeling and resorption. This protein, which is a member of the peptidase C1 protein family, is predominantly expressed in osteoclasts. However, the encoded protein is also expressed in a significant fraction of human breast cancers, where it could contribute to tumor invasiveness. Mutations in this gene are the cause of pycnodysostosis, an autosomal recessive disease characterized by osteosclerosis and short stature. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2013]
uniprot summary :
CTSK: 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. Defects in CTSK are the cause of pycnodysostosis (PKND). PKND is an autosomal recessive osteochondrodysplasia characterized by osteosclerosis and short stature. Belongs to the peptidase C1 family. Protein type: EC 3.4.22.38; Protease. Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 1q21. Cellular Component: extracellular space; extracellular region. Molecular Function: collagen binding; protein binding; proteoglycan binding; fibronectin binding; cysteine-type endopeptidase activity; cysteine-type peptidase activity. Biological Process: extracellular matrix disassembly; collagen catabolic process; intramembranous ossification; extracellular matrix organization and biogenesis; proteolysis involved in cellular protein catabolic process; toll-like receptor signaling pathway; innate immune response; proteolysis; bone resorption. Disease: Pycnodysostosis
