High impact information on Cys

The Drosophila cystatin has been mapped, by in situ hybridization, to region 88C on the right arm of the third chromosome [1].
However, we suggest that single chain, non-heterodimeric calpains may be insensitive to calpastatin and that Drosophila cystatin-like molecules may play a role in negatively regulating Drosophila calpain [2].

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Cys

Sequence analysis, and chromosomal localization of a gene encoding a cystatin-like protein from Drosophila melanogaster [1].
