Cathepsin Assay Kits

Cathepsin assay kits are available from several suppliers to determine the enzymatic activity of the cathepsin family of lysosomal proteases. Playing an important role in cell turnover, cathepsins can also vary in structure, catalytic mechanism, target, and function. Cathepsin family members have been reported to play important roles in areas such as apoptosis, cancer progression, bone resorption, and Alzheimer’s disease. Cathepsin assays can be used to study enzyme kinetics and the screening of inhibitors for drug testing.
