Product Specs

Introduction
Cathepsin E (CTSE), an intracellular aspartic protease belonging to the pepsin protein family, plays a critical role in protein degradation, bioactive protein production, and antigen processing. It is involved in cleaving the Swedish mutant of amyloid precursor protein (APP) at the B site and exhibits reactivity with wild-type APP.

Physical Appearance
Sterile Filtered clear solution.
Formulation
CTSE protein solution (0.5 mg/ml) is supplied in PBS (pH 7.4) containing 10% glycerol.
Stability
For optimal storage, keep at 4°C if the entire vial will be used within 2-4 weeks. For extended periods, store frozen at -20°C. Adding a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA) is recommended for long-term storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Purity
Purity is determined to be greater than 95.0% by SDS-PAGE analysis.

Product Science Overview

Structure and Function

Cathepsin E is primarily found in a perinuclear compartment, which is likely part of the endoplasmic reticulum, and also in a peripheral compartment just beneath the cell membrane . It is involved in antigen processing within the class II MHC pathway, playing a crucial role in the immune response .

Recombinant Mouse Cathepsin E

Recombinant Mouse Cathepsin E is produced using a mouse myeloma cell line, NS0-derived mouse Cathepsin E protein (Gln19-Pro397), with a C-terminal 10-His tag . The recombinant protein is supplied as a 0.2 μm filtered solution in MES and NaCl, and it is recommended to store it at -20 to -70 °C to maintain stability .

Applications

Recombinant Mouse Cathepsin E is used in various research applications, including studies on antigen processing and presentation, as well as in the investigation of its role in the immune system . It is also utilized in assays to measure its ability to cleave specific fluorogenic peptide substrates .

Importance in Research

The study of Cathepsin E is significant due to its role in the immune system. It has been implicated in antigen processing within dendritic cells, which are key antigen-presenting cells in the immune system . Understanding the function and regulation of Cathepsin E can provide insights into immune responses and potential therapeutic targets for immune-related diseases.
