Description:
CTSK(cathepsin K), also named as CTSO, CTSO2, is a recently identified lysosomal cysteine proteinase. CTSK is synthesized as a proenzyme of 38 kDa and subsequently enters acidic lysosomal compartments, in which the propeptide is cleaved and transformed into an active enzyme and it may influence adipocyte differentiation through modifying extracellularmatrixcomponents(PMID:16912123). It is revealed both the 46-kDa cathepsin-K precursor and the 30-kDa mature form in mouse bone extracts(PMID:9811821). The high CTSK protein levels are only detected in primary cultured fibroblasts derived from normal and neoplastic breast tissue, where the 37- and 25-kDa bands to be detected correspond to pro- and mature proteins through western blot(PMID:18765527). The full length protein has a signal peptides with 15 amino acids and a propeptide with 99 amino acids. This antibody is specific to CTSK.

Research Backgrounds

Function:

Thiol protease involved in osteoclastic bone resorption and may participate partially in the disorder of bone remodeling. Displays potent endoprotease activity against fibrinogen at acid pH. May play an important role in extracellular matrix degradation. Involved in the release of thyroid hormone thyroxine (T4) by limited proteolysis of TG/thyroglobulin in the thyroid follicle lumen.

Subcellular Location:

Lysosome. Secreted. Apical cell membrane>Peripheral membrane protein>Extracellular side.
Note: Localizes to the lumen of thyroid follicles and to the apical membrane of thyroid epithelial cells.

Tissue Specificity:

Predominantly expressed in osteoclasts (bones). Expressed in thyroid epithelial cells.

Family&Domains:

Belongs to the peptidase C1 family.
