Recombinant Mouse Cystatin E/CST6 (C-6His)

Mouse CST6 is a member of the family 2 of the cystatin superfamily. The type 2 cystatin proteins are a class of cysteine proteinase inhibitors found in a variety of human fluids & secretions, where they appear to provide protective functions. CST6 is expressed in heart, liver & kidney. In addition to its function as a cysteine protease inhibitor, CST6 also serves as a target for cross-linking by transglutaminases. Accordingly, CST6 was suggested to be involved in barrier formation & maintenance. Furthermore, studies have revealed that CST6 is frequently epigenetically inactivated during breast carcinogenesis, & thus be regarded as a candidate of tumour suppressor gene.
