Background

Cathepsin S, also known as CTSS, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CTSS gene. A member of the peptidase C1 family, CTSS gene is a lysosomal cysteine proteinase that may participate in the degradation of antigenic proteins to peptides for presentation on MHC class II molecules. By fluorescence in situ hybridization(FISH), this gene is mapped to 1q21.3. The encoded protein can function as an elastase over a broad pH range in alveolar macrophages. The bond-specificity of this proteinase is in part similar to the specificities of cathepsin L and cathepsin N.

Reproducibility

To assay reproducibility, three samples with differing target protein concentrations were assayed using four different lots.

Lots	Lot 1 (pg/ml)	Lot 2 (pg/ml)	Lot 3 (pg/ml)	Lot 4 (pg/ml)	Mean (pg/ml)	Standard Deviation	CV (%)
Sample 1	179	186	175	193	183	6.58	3.6%
Sample 2	406	440	371	396	403	24.98	6.2%
Sample 3	501	531	479	463	493	25.63	5.2%
