Specifications
Target Information
Bovine cathepsin A (CTSA), also known as protective protein/cathepsin A (PPCA), is a lysosomal serine protease involved in protein degradation and metabolism. It functions as a carboxypeptidase, cleaving peptide bonds at the carboxy-terminal end of proteins. CTSA is part of a multi-enzyme complex with neuraminidase and beta-galactosidase, playing a crucial role in lysosomal degradation pathways. Deficiencies in CTSA lead to galactosialidosis, a lysosomal storage disorder characterized by the accumulation of undigested glycoproteins and glycolipids.
