Extra Details:: CSTB, also known as Cystatin B is an anti-protease implicated in myoclonus epilepsy, a degenerative disease of the central nervous system. The cystatin superfamily encompasses proteins that contain multiple cystatin-like sequences. Some of the members are active cysteine protease inhibitors, while others have lost or perhaps never acquired this inhibitory activity. This protein is able to from a dimer stabilized by noncovalent forces and is thought to play a role in protecting against the proteases leaking from lysosomes in cells. CSTB is located in the lysosomes and the cytoplasm, but also in the nucleus. Applications: Suitable for use in Immunofluorescence, ELISA, Western Blot and Immunocytochemistry. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4°C for short-term only.
