		Technical Data
C2097-78F	CTSL2, ID (Cathepsin V, Cathepsin L2, Cathepsin U, Cathepsin V, CATL2, CTSU, CTSV, UNQ268/PRO305)

Description:
Cathepsin V, also known as Cathepsin L2 and Cathepsin U, is a cysteine protease of the papain family. It is expressed as a proenzyme in lysosomes, which can be autocatalytically converted to the mature form at pH 4.0. Cathepsin V is specifically expressed in the thymus, testis, and corneal epithelium.

Applications:
Suitable for use in ELISA, Western Blot and Immunohistochemistry. Other applications not tested.

Recommended Dilution:
ELISA: 1:20,000
Western Blot: 1:500-1:1000
Immunohistochemistry (Formalin fixed paraffin embedded): 5ug/ml
Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.

Storage and Stability:
May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
