Cystatin E/M or CST6 is part of the cystatin type 2 family. Part of the cystatin type 2 family members can act as cysteine protease inhibitors, whereas cystatin E/M regulates cathepsin B inhibitors and not cathepsin C. cystatin E/M is a protein the when secreted, has an effect on osteogenesis and bone resorption, insulin regulation, response to systemic inflammation & hepatocyte growth factor receptors.
CST6 Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 142 amino acids (29-149 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 15.9kDa.CST6 is fused to a 21 amino acid His tag at N-Terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
UniProt Protein Function: | CST6: Shows moderate inhibition of cathepsin B but is not active against cathepsin C. Belongs to the cystatin family. |

NCBI Summary: | 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. There are three inhibitory families in the superfamily, including the type 1 cystatins (stefins), type 2 cystatins and the kininogens. The type 2 cystatin proteins are a class of cysteine proteinase inhibitors found in a variety of human fluids and secretions, where they appear to provide protective functions. This gene encodes a cystatin from the type 2 family, which is down-regulated in metastatic breast tumor cells as compared to primary tumor cells. Loss of expression is likely associated with the progression of a primary tumor to a metastatic phenotype. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008] |
