Biological Activity
Description
Cathepsin L2 Protein, Human (HEK293, His) is a functional cysteine proteinase, mainly expressed in the cornea, testis, thymus, and epidermis.
Background
Cathepsin L2 (cathepsin V) is a human cysteine proteinase, and shows a high percentage of identity (78%) with cathepsin L. Expression analysis of cathepsin L2 in human tumors revealed a widespread expression in colorectal and breast carcinomas but not in normal colon or mammary gland or in peritumoral tissues. Cathepsin L2 is also expressed by colorectal and breast cancer cell lines as well as by some tumors of diverse origin, including ovarian and renal carcinomas[1][2].
Verified Bioactivity
Measured by its ability to cleave the fluorogenic peptide substrate Z-LR-AMC and the specific activity is >1000 pmol/min/μg, as measured under the described conditions.

Product Properties
Lyophilized powder.
1.Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of 25 mM MES, 25 mM NaCl, pH 6.5, 5% trehalose, 5% mannitol, 0.01% Tween 80.
2.Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of 20 mM PB, 150 mM NaCl, pH 7.4.
Please refer to the lot-specific COA for specific buffer information.
<1 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.
It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/mL in ddH2O. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS or 5% Trehalose).
Stored at -20°C for 2 years from date of receipt. After reconstitution, it is stable at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for longer (with carrier protein). It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage.
Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere.
