CST6, Recombinant, Human, aa29-149, His-Tag (Cystatin-M , Cystatin E/M)

CST6 is a member of the type 2 cystatin family. Some of the members are active cysteine protease inhibitors, while cystatin E/M moderate the inhibition of cathepsin B but is not active against cathepsin C. CST6 is secretable proteins that influence osteogenesis and bone resorption, regulation of the insulin and hepatocyte growth factor receptors, and the response to systemic inflammation. Source: Recombinant protein corresponding to aa29-149 from human CST6, fused to His-tag at N-terminal expressed in E. coli. Molecular Weight: ~15.9kD (142aa), Biological Activity: The IC50 value is <10nM. The inhibitory function of Cystatin 6 on protease activity of papain was measured by a fluorometric assay using Z-FR-AMC at pH 7.5 at 25°C.
