CTSZ Human Recombinant produced in E.coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 265 amino acids (62-303) and having a molecular mass of 29.5kDa.CTSZ is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Cathepsin-Z (CTSZ) is a lysosomal cysteine proteinase and member of the peptidase C1 family. CTSZ, which has been also known as cathepsin X and cathepsin P, exhibits carboxy-monopeptidase and carboxy-dipeptidase activities. CTSZ is expressed ubiquitously in cancer cell lines and primary tumors and, similar to other members of this family, takes part in tumorigenesis.
