CSTB, Active

Alternative Names: Cystatin-B, Stefin-B, Liver thiol proteinase inhibitor, CPI-B, CSTB, CST6, EPM1, PME, STFB

Cystatin B (CSTB) is a protein believed to play a role in myoclonus epilepsy. It is part of a larger family of proteins that contain cystatin-like sequences. The cystatin superfamily consists of both cysteine protease inhibitors and proteins that lack this ability. CSTB forms a stable dimer through noncovalent bonds and is important for protecting against the leakage of lysosomal proteases. It is present in lysosomes, the nucleus, and the cytoplasm of cells.

Product Guarantee

If your product is within its expiration period, and has not performed according to expectations, fill out the sample return form. Return the unused sample frozen, with the auto generated packing slip to the address on the instructions. You will receive a full refund along with a replacement of the unused portion (inclusive of the failed test). Damages do not cover any additional costs incurred for failed experimentation.

Storage Instruction

Reconstituted store at -20°C or -80°C.We recommend that single use aliquots are prepared to avoid freeze-thaw cycles.

Sample Prep Instruction

1. Thaw the vial on ice, spin briefly
2. Prepare single-use or stock aliquots. This stage will depend on your final application so please adapt as appropriate. All our proteins are supplied carrier protein-free. If compatible with your work and you are storing at lower concentrations (<50 ug/ml) adding carrier protein is highly advised (usually 1% w/v high purity BSA or equivalent – ensure all buffers are sterile-filtered).
3. Prepare single-use aliquots whenever possible to avoid freeze-thaw cycles which can damage the proteins and reduce bioactivity. Store aliquots at -70 °C (or -20 °C)
4. We recommend sterile filtering after dilution in media or the final working solution
