Chymotrypsin-Like Elastase Family, Member 1 (CELA1) (N-Term) Peptide

This is a synthetic peptide designed for use in combination with anti-ELA1 antibody ( ARP52007_P050). It may block above mentioned antibody from binding to its target protein in western blot and/or immunohistochecmistry under proper experimental settings. There is no guarantee for its use in other applications. Please inquire for more details.

Background Information: Elastases form a subfamily of serine proteases that hydrolyze many proteins in addition to elastin. Humans have six structurally similar proteins elastase 1, 2, 2A, 2B, 3A, and 3B. Unlike other elastases, pancreatic elastase 1 is not expressed in the pancreas. To date, elastase 1 (ELA1) expression has only been detected in skin keratinocytes. Clinical literature that describes human elastase 1 activity in the pancreas is actually referring to elastase 2A.Elastases form a subfamily of serine proteases that hydrolyze many proteins in addition to elastin.
