製品の概要
Cathepsin S Activity Assay Kit (ab65307) is a fluorescence-based assay that uses the preferred cathepsin-S substrate sequence VVR labeled with AFC (amino-4-trifluoromethyl coumarin). Cell lysates or other samples that contain cathepsin-S will cleave the synthetic substrate VVR-AFC to release free AFC. The released AFC can easily be quantified using a fluorometer or fluorescence plate reader.

特記事項
This product is manufactured by BioVision, an Abcam company and was previously called K144 Cathepsin S Activity Fluorometric Assay Kit. K144-100 is the same size as the 100 test size of ab65307.
Apoptosis can be mediated by mechanisms other than the traditional caspase-mediated cleavage cascade. There is growing recognition that alternative proteolytic enzymes such as the lysosomal cathepsin proteases may initiate or propagate proapoptotic signals. Cathepsins are lysosomal enzymes that are also used as sensitive markers in various toxicological investigations.

The cathepsin family of proteases contains several diverse classes of enzymes. The cysteine protease class comprises cathepsin B, H, K, L, O, and S. The aspartyl protease class contains cathepsin D and E. Cathepsin G belongs to the serine protease class. Cathepsins are involved in various cellular events such as peptide biosynthesis, protein degradation, and apoptosis. Cathepsin S has been shown to be able to function as an elastase over a broad pH range in alveolar macrophages. -
