Protein Biology

Function

Thiol protease involved in osteoclastic bone resorption. Displays potent endoprotease activity against fibrinogen at acid pH. May play an important role in extracellular matrix degradation (By similarity). Involved in the release of thyroid hormone thyroxine (T4) by limited proteolysis of TG/thyroglobulin in the thyroid follicle lumen (PubMed:12782676)

Subcellular Location

Lysosome; Secreted; Apical cell membrane (Peripheral membrane protein)

Tissue Specificity

Predominantly expressed in bones (PubMed:8814310). Expressed in thyroid epithelial cells (PubMed:12782676)

Gene: Ctsk  |  Organism: Mus musculus
