CTSZ, Sf9

Alternative Names: EC 3.4.18.1, Cathepsin B2, Cathepsin IV, Cathepsin P, Cathepsin X, Cathepsin Y, Cathepsin Z, Cathepsin Z1, CTSX, Cysteine-Type Carboxypeptidase, Lysosomal Carboxypeptidase B, Preprocathepsin P, Carboxypeptidase LB.

Cathepsin-Z (CTSZ) is a lysosomal cysteine proteinase belonging to peptidase C1 family. CTSZ, also known as cathepsin X and cathepsin P, exhibits carboxy-monopeptidase and carboxy-dipeptidase activities. It is widely expressed in cancer cells and tumors, and plays a role in tumorigenesis like other family members.

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
