CTSA Antibodies

AND CTSA ELISA kits, CTSA Proteins

Many biological assays use antibodies to detect CTSA, such as Western Blot (WB), ELISA, Flow Cytometry, Immunocytochemistry (IHC). These antibodies can be polyclonal or monoclonal, and react with CTSA in Human, Mouse, Rat, and many other animal samples. Boster Bio use mainly mouse and rabbit to develop CTSA antibodies...

We validate the specificity of these antibodies to CTSA by testing them on tissues known to express CTSA positively and negatively. Browse below to find the CTSA antibody that suites your experiment. We have 5 of these antibodies and many publications and validation images.

If you cannot find antibodies that fit your needs, contact us for making custom antibodies. We have a full suite of custom antibody services covering from research to diagnostic and therapeutic applications.

Designing a Western blot for CTSA? The guide has the expected band size, antibodies backed by real blot images, the controls to run alongside, and protocols taken from published papers.

CTSA Overview

Facts about Lysosomal protective protein.

CTSA 3D structure. Source: alphafold

Lysosomal protective protein (CTSA)

Protective protein appears to be essential for both the activity of beta-galactosidase and neuraminidase, it associates with these enzymes and exerts a protective role required for their stability and activity. This protein can be a carboxypeptidase and can deamidate tachykinins.
