DescriptionPurified rabbit polyclonal antibody. Recognizes the ~43 kDa latent and the ~31 kDa active forms of cathepsin B.
BackgroundCathepsin B (CB) is a normal lysosomal proteinase which is expressed in all cells. It is a cysteine endoproteinase which is structurally and functionally related to the papain family of proteinases. CB is synthesized as an inactive ~43 kDa pro-enzyme which, by removal of a 62 amino acid propeptide, is activated to the single-chain form of ~31 kDa or the two-chain form (~25 and ~5 kDa subunits). Mature CB is normally localized in the lysosomes where it functions in protein turnover. It has also been shown to be capable of degrading extracellular matrix proteins at acidic and neutral pH. Endogenous inhibitors of cysteine proteinases, the cystatins and stefins, may play a major role in regulating their activity. In tumor cells and in cells exposed to mitogens, CB displays altered cellular trafficking resulting in the secretion of the ~43 kDa precursor. Elevated levels of CB correlate with malignancy suggesting that this enzyme may be a useful prognostic marker for several types of human cancers.
