Mouse myeloma cell line NS0-derived recombinant mouse Cathepsin D Ile21-Leu410 Accession # Q3UCD9
Specificity
Detects mouse Cathepsin D in direct ELISAs and Western blots. In direct ELISAs, approximately 15% cross-reactivity with recombinant human Cathepsin D is observed and less than 1% cross-reactivity with recombinant mouse Cathepsin E is observed.

Background
Cathepsin D is a lysosomal aspartic protease of the pepsin family (4). Mouse Cathepsin D is synthesized as a precursor protein, consisting of a signal peptide (residues 1-20), a propeptide (residues 21-64), and a mature chain (residues 65-410) (1-3). It is expressed in most cells and over-expressed in breast cancer cells (5). It is a major enzyme in protein degradation in lysosomes, and also involved in the presentation of antigenic peptides. Mice deficient in this enzyme showed a progressive atrophy of the intestinal mucosa, a massive destruction of lymphoid organs, and a profound neuronal ceroid lipofucinosis, indicating that Cathepsin D is essential for proteolysis of proteins regulating cell growth and tissue homeostasis (6). Cathepsin D secreted from human prostate carcinoma cells is responsible for the generation of angiostatin, a potent endogeneous inhibitor of angiogenesis (6).
