INTRODUCTION
Cystatin B or CSTB, is an protein (anti-protease) that is suspected to be involved in myoclonus epilepsy. As part of the encompasses proteins family, it has many cystatin-like sequences. Part of the cystatin superfamily are cysteine protease inhibitors; part don’t have the ability. CSTB can create a dimer that is stable because of noncovalent bonds and has a crucial part in shielding from lysosomal proteases leaking. Cystatin B can be found in the lysosomes, nucleus & the cytoplasm in cells.

DESCRIPTION
CSTB Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 118 amino acids (1-98 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 13kDa.
CSTB is fused to a 20 amino acid His tag at N-Terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
