General description
Cathepsin B (CTSB; EC 3.4.22.1) is a lysosomal cysteine proteinase involved in intracellular degradation and turnover of proteins. It is involved in the proteolytic processing of amyloid precursor protein (APP). Incomplete proteolytic processing of APP is a causative factor in Alzheimer′s disease. CTSB has also been implicated in the invasion and metastasis of certain cancers.
The Cathepsin B Inhibitor Screening Kit is a simple assay for screening potential inhibitors of CTSB. CTSB activity is measured by cleaving a synthetic 7-amino-4-trifluoromethylcoumarin (AFC)-based substrate to yield AFC, a fluorescent product (λex = 400/λem = 505 nm), proportional to the enzymatic activity present.

Natural microbial communities are phylogenetically and metabolically diverse. In addition to underexplored organismal groups1, this diversity encompasses a rich discovery potential for ecologically and biotechnologically relevant enzymes and biochemical compounds2,3. However, studying this diversity to identify genomic pathways for the
