Calpain, Small Subunit 1 (CAPNS1) belongs to the calpain small subunit family. Calpains are a ubiquitous, well-conserved family of calcium-dependent, cysteine proteases, widely distributed in mammalian cells. Calpain families are implicated in neurodegenerative processes, considering that their activation can be triggered by calcium influx and oxidative stress. Calpains function as heterodimers, comprising a specific large catalytic subunit (calpain 1 subunit in Calpain I, and calpain 2 subunit in Calpain II), and a common small regulatory subunit encoded by the CAPNS1 gene. The CAPNS1 protein is vital for the stability and function of both calpain heterodimers, whose proteolytic activities influence numerous cellular functions including apoptosis, proliferation, migration, adhesion, and autophagy.

CAPNS1 Human Recombinant produced in E.coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 208 amino acids (84-268) and having a molecular mass of 23.8 kDa.
CAPNS1 is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.

Escherichia Coli.
