Description: Human cystatin C (or cystatin 3), which is composed of 120 amino acid residues, belongs to the cystatins superfamilly that inactivates lysosomal cysteine proteinases. As a strongly cationic and low-molecular weight (13.4 kDa) protein, it is almost freely filtered across the glomerular membrane, and is mainly used as a biomarker of kidney function. A growing body of evidence suggests that cystatin C is a more reliable biomarker of glomerular filtration rate than creatinine.
