Cathepsin C (CTSC), also called dipeptidyl peptidase I (DPP-I), is a lysosomal cysteine protease expressed in innate immune cells like neutrophils and macrophages. It activates proforms of serine proteases (neutrophil elastase, cathepsin G) via dipeptidyl cleavage, critical for host defense and inflammatory responses. This links CTSC to pathways regulating neutrophil degranulation and pathogen clearance.
Biallelic CTSC mutations cause Papillon-Lefèvre syndrome (PLS, palmoplantar keratoderma + early periodontitis) and Haim-Munk syndrome (PLS variant with arachnodactyly). Selective inhibitors like brensocatib (phase3 trials) target CTSC to reduce neutrophil-driven inflammation, evaluated for non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis and COPD to mitigate exacerbations.
Recombinant Human Dipeptidyl peptidase 1 (CTSC) (Active) (CSB-MP006186HU)
Validated Data
(Tris-Glycine gel) Discontinuous SDS-PAGE (reduced) with 5% enrichment gel and 15% separation gel.
Activity
Measured by its ability to cleave the fluorogenic peptide substrate, Gly-Arg-7-amido-4-methylcoumarin (GR-AMC). The specific activity is >200 pmol/min/μg. The Human CTSC needs to be activated by Human CTSL (CSB-MP006193HU(A4)).
CTSC Antibody (CSB-PA006186LA01HU)
Validated Data
IHC image of CSB-PA006186LA01HU diluted at 1:300 and staining in paraffin-embedded human lung tissue performed on a Leica BondTM system. After dewaxing and hydration, antigen retrieval was mediated by high pressure in a citrate buffer (pH 6.0). Section was blocked with 10% normal goat serum 30min at RT. Then primary antibody (1% BSA) was incubated at 4°C overnight. The primary is detected by a biotinylated secondary antibody and visualized using an HRP conjugated SP system.
The following CTSC reagents supplied by CUSABIO are manufactured under a strict quality control system. Multiple applications have been validated and solid technical support is offered.
