Product Overview

Description

Cathepsin K (CTSK, EC 3.4.22.38) is a lysosomal cysteine ​​protease involved in bone remodeling and resorption by osteoclasts. In addition, it also degrades collagen, gelatin and elastin. Our cathepsin K inhibitor screening kit utilizes the ability of active cathepsin K to cleave AFC-based synthetic peptide substrates to release AFC, which can be easily quantified using a fluorometer or fluorescent microplate reader. In the presence of cathepsin K-specific inhibitors, the cleavage of this substrate is reduced/eliminated, resulting in a reduction or complete loss of AFC fluorescence. This simple and high-throughput adaptability assay kit can be used to screen/research/characterize potential inhibitors of cathepsin K.
