Details

Target of this antibody:
Cathepsin L
Alternative names of antibody target:
CTSL, CATL, CTSL1, MEP, EC 3.4.22.15
Background information:
Cathepsin L is a normal lysosomal cysteine endoproteases that is expressed in all cells. The latent 39 kDa pro-Cathepsin L must be processed by cleavage of the 96 amino acid pro-peptide, to generate the active two-chain form made up of 21 and 5 kDa subunits. Mature Cathepsin L is normally localized in the lysosomes where it plays a major role in intracellular protein catabolism. The fact that Cathepsin L is also capable of degrading extracellular matrix proteins sμggests that it may play a role in invasion and metastasis and could be a useful prognostic indicator for cancer.
Antibody host:
Rabbit
Clonality of antibody:
Polyclonal
Isotype:
Rabbit IgG
This antibody reacts with:
Human
Immunogene sequence:
Synthetic peptide surrounding amino acid 223 of human Cathepsin L
Concentration of antibody:
0.2 mg/ml
Form of antibody:
Liquid
Formulation of this antibody:
100 µg (0.2 mg/ml) affinity purified rabbit anti-cathepsin L polyclonal antibody in phosphate buffered saline (PBS), pH 7.2, containing 30% glycerol, 0.1% BSA, 0.01% thimerosal.
Purification method:
Affinity purified
This antibody has been succesfully tested for use in following methods:
Western blot, Immunohistochemistry
Recommended usage:
Western blotting (0.5-4 µg/ml), and Immunohistochemistry (5 µg/ml). However, the optimal conditions should be determined individually. Jurkat cell lysate (Cat.# 2401-100) can be used as a positive control. Detects both the proenzyme and the mature form of cathepsin L
Storage information:

Shipping conditions:
gel pack
How to handle this antibody:
The antibody solution should be gently mixed before use.
Description
This antibody needs to be stored at + 4°C in a fridge short term in a concentrated dilution. Freeze thaw will destroy a percentage in every cycle and should be avoided.
Properties
If you buy Antibodies supplied by Biovision they should be stored frozen at - 24°C for long term storage and for short term at + 5°C.
Gene
CTS protease activity also measured by zymograph electrophoresis of Cathepsins. This cathepsin is supplied in 1.
