General description

Cathepsin B is a lysosomal enzyme that comprises a light chain (Lys1–Arg49) and a heavy chain (Val50–Thr253). It belongs to cysteine family C1.

Application

Cathepsin B from bovine spleen has been used in cleavage assay before high-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS) analysis. It has also been used in the enzyme inhibition assays with protease inhibitors RfIP1 and ruthenium metalloarenes.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Cathepsin B displays an endopeptidase and peptidyl dipeptidase activities. It may be associated with the pathophysiology of tumors. Cathepsin B is also regarded as a prominent protease in Leishmaniasis. It is overactivated in muscular dystrophy, pulmonary emphysema, and bone resorption.
Cathepsin B has been found to cleave procaspase 1 and procaspase 11 and to induce apoptosis in digitonin-permeabilized cells. Translocation of cathepsin B from the cytoplasm to the nucleus contributes to bile salt induced apoptosis of rat hepatocytes. Levels of cathepsin B in PC12 cells significantly decrease 12 to 24 hours after apoptosis is induced.

Unit Definition

One unit will hydrolyze 1 μmole of Z-lysine p-nitrophenyl ester per min at pH 5.0 at 25 °C.

Physical form

Lyophilized powder containing sodium phosphate, sodium chloride and ~6% EDTA as stabilizer.

A series of ruthenium(II)-arene (RAPTA) compounds were evaluated for their ability to inhibit thioredoxin reductase (either cytosolic or mitochondrial) and cathepsin B, two possible targets for anticancer metallodrugs. In general, inhibition of the thioredoxin reductases was lower than that of

A novel ruthenium(II) compound, trans-cis-cis-[Ru(II)Cl(2)(DMSO)(2)(2-amino-5-methyl-thiazole)(2)], (I), PMRu52 hereafter, that may be obtained from the previously described (cis and trans)-[Ru(II)Cl(2)(DMSO)(4)] complexes, was designed, synthesized and characterised. The single crystal X-ray structure shows a roughly regular octahedral environment for the ruthenium(II) center
