Description / Cathepsin H
Cathepsin H is a lysosomal cysteine protease of the papain family (. It is synthesized as a precursor protein, consisting of a signal peptide (residues 1-20), a propeptide (residues 21-95), a mini chain (residues 96-103), a heavy chain (residues 114-290) and a light chain (residues 291-333). A truncated form with a 12 amino acid deletion in the signal peptide region is secreted. Cathepsin H is the only known monoaminopeptidase in the papain family. Cathepsin H expression is significantly increased in prostate tumors, sera of asthmatic patients, and mucosa of colorectal cancer patients.
