Anti-CAPN5 Antibody Picoband®, APC Conjugate

Calpain-5 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CAPN5 gene. Calpains are calcium-dependent cysteine proteases involved in signal transduction in a variety of cellular processes. A functional calpain protein consists of an invariant small subunit and 1 of a family of large subunits. CAPN5 is one of the large subunits. Unlike some of the calpains, CAPN5 and CAPN6 lack a calmodulin-like domain IV. Because of the significant similarity to Caenorhabditis elegans sex determination gene tra-3, CAPN5 is also called as HTRA3.

E.coli-derived human CAPN5 recombinant protein (Position: N583-N616). Human CAPN5 shares 84.8% and 78.8% amino acid (aa) sequence identity with mouse and rat CAPN5, respectively.
