products description :
Intended Uses: This immunoassay kit allows for the in vitro quantitative determination of target antigen concentrations in serum, plasma, tissue homogenates, cell culture supernates or other biological fluids. Principle of the Assay: The microtiter plate provided in this kit has been pre-coated with an antibody specific to target antigen. Standards or samples are then added to the appropriate microtiter plate wells with a biotin-conjugated antibody preparation specific for target antigen and then avidin conjugated to Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to each microplate well and incubated. Then a TMB substrate solution is added to each well. Only those wells that contain target antigen, biotin-conjugated antibody and enzyme-conjugated Avidin will exhibit a change in color. The enzyme-substrate reaction is terminated by the addition of a sulphuric acid solution and the color change is measured spectrophotometrically at a wavelength of 450 nm +/- 2 nm. The concentration of target antigen in the samples is then determined by comparing the O.D. of the samples to the standard curve.

ncbi summary :
This gene encodes a member of the cathepsin family of cysteine proteases that is highly expressed in osteoclasts and is involved in the degradation of collagen and other matrix proteins in bone. The encoded preproprotein undergoes proteolytic processing to generate a mature, functional enzyme. Mice lacking the encoded protein exhibit phenotypic features of pycnodysostosis such as increased bone density and bone deformity, which become progressively more pronounced with age.

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: Protease; EC 3.4.22.38. Cellular Component: cytoplasm; extracellular space; lysosome. Molecular Function: collagen binding; cysteine-type endopeptidase activity; cysteine-type peptidase activity; fibronectin binding; hydrolase activity; peptidase activity; proteoglycan binding. Biological Process: bone resorption; collagen catabolic process; proteolysis; proteolysis involved in cellular protein catabolic process
