Cystatin C/CST3 Protein, Human (HEK293, His)
Cystatin C/CST3 protein can significantly inhibit cysteine proteases and locally regulate their enzymatic activity. It captures and binds free plasma hemoglobin, preventing kidney damage and supporting hepatic heme iron recycling. Cystatin C/CST3 Protein, Human (HEK293, His) is the recombinant human-derived Cystatin C/CST3 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-6*His labeled tag.
- Species: Human
- Source: HEK293
-
Storage: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.

Description
Cystatin C/CST3 protein can significantly inhibit cysteine proteases and locally regulate their enzymatic activity. It captures and binds free plasma hemoglobin, preventing kidney damage and supporting hepatic heme iron recycling. Cystatin C/CST3 Protein, Human (HEK293, His) is the recombinant human-derived Cystatin C/CST3 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-6*His labeled tag.
Background
The Cystatin C/CST3 protein serves a crucial physiological role as an inhibitor of cysteine proteinases, acting as a local regulator of their enzyme activity. It is known to capture and bind free plasma hemoglobin, preventing kidney damage and enabling the hepatic recycling of heme iron. In cases of hemolysis, where hemoglobin can accumulate in the kidneys and be secreted in urine, Cystatin C/CST3 plays a vital role in clearing the complexes formed between hemoglobin and Haptoglobin. Additionally, Cystatin C/CST3 acts as an antioxidant, exhibits antibacterial activity, and contributes to modulating various aspects of the acute phase response. The protein's homodimeric structure further enhances its functionality and effectiveness as an enzyme inhibitor.

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.
