Cathepsin D Protein, Human (HEK293)
Cathepsin D protein is an acidic protease that actively participates in intracellular protein breakdown. Studies have shown that it is critical in the processing of amyloid precursor protein (APP), with ADAM30-mediated cleavage and activation leading to APP degradation. Cathepsin D Protein, Human (HEK293) is the recombinant human-derived Cathepsin D protein, expressed by HEK293 , with tag free.

Description
Cathepsin D protein is an acidic protease that actively participates in intracellular protein breakdown. Studies have shown that it is critical in the processing of amyloid precursor protein (APP), with ADAM30-mediated cleavage and activation leading to APP degradation.

Background
Cathepsin D, an acid protease, exerts its activity in the intracellular breakdown of proteins. This protease is implicated in the processing of amyloid precursor protein (APP), with its cleavage and activation by ADAM30 leading to the degradation of APP, as evidenced in studies. Cathepsin D's involvement extends to the pathogenesis of various diseases, including breast cancer, and it is suggested to play a role in Alzheimer's disease, highlighting its significance in cellular processes and potential connections to pathological conditions.
