Specificity

Detects mouse Cathepsin C/DPPI in direct ELISAs and Western blots. In direct ELISAs, approximately 15% cross‑reactivity with recombinant human (rh) Cathepsin C is observed and less than 1% cross-reactivity with recombinant mouse (rm) Cathepsin A, rmCathepsin B, rmCathepsin D, rmCathepsin H, and rmCathepsin X/Z/P is observed.

Scientific Data Images for Mouse/Rat Cathepsin C/DPPI Antibody

Detection of Mouse Cathepsin C/DPPI antibody by Western Blot.

Detection of Mouse Cathepsin C/DPPI by Western Blot.

Western blot shows lysates of mouse liver tissue and mouse spleen tissue. PVDF membrane was probed with 0.25 µg/mL of Goat Anti-Mouse Cathepsin C/DPPI Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF1034) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF019). A specific band was detected for Cathepsin C/DPPI at approximately 20-25 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 1.
Detection of Mouse and Rat Cathepsin C/DPPI antibody by Western Blot.

Detection of Mouse and Rat Cathepsin C/DPPI by Western Blot.

Western blot shows lysates of mouse lung tissue and rat lung tissue. PVDF membrane was probed with 1 µg/mL of Goat Anti-Mouse Cathepsin C/DPPI Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF1034) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF017). A specific band was detected for Cathepsin C/DPPI at approximately 20-22 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 1.
Cathepsin C/DPPI antibody in Mouse Thymus by Immunohistochemistry (IHC-Fr).

Cathepsin C/DPPI in Mouse Thymus.

Cathepsin C/DPPI was detected in perfusion fixed frozen sections of mouse thymus using Goat Anti-Mouse Cathepsin C/ DPPI Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF1034) at 15 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C. Tissue was stained using the Anti-Goat HRP-DAB Cell & Tissue Staining Kit (brown; Catalog # CTS008) and counter-stained with hematoxylin (blue). Specific staining was localized to thymocytes.

Background: Cathepsin C/DPPI

Cathepsin C is a cysteine protease of the papain family (1). Cathepsin C sequentially removes dipeptides from the free N-termini of proteins and peptides. It has broad specificity except that it does not cleave a basic amino acid (Arg or Lys) in the N-terminal position or Pro on either side of the scissle bond. It requires halide ions for activity. The pro form contains a pro peptide and a catalytic region, which can be further processed into heavy/ alpha and light/ beta chains that are linked by a disulfide bond. It is broadly distributed. Cathepsin C plays a role in the lysosomal degradation. It also functions as a key enzyme in the activation of granule serine proteases in cytotoxic T lymphocytes and natural killer cells (granzymes A and B), mast cells (tryptase and chymase), and neutrophils (Cathepsin G and elastase) by removing their N-terminal activation dipeptides (2).
