Procathepsin K is the inactive proenzyme of cathepsin K. Cathepsin K is a lysosomal cysteine protease and part of the papain cysteine protease family. It is expressed in osteoclasts. The gene encoding this protein is localized on human chromosome 1q21.
Inmunógeno
Synthetic peptide of human CTSK
Acciones bioquímicas o fisiológicas
Cathepsin K has a role in bone resorption and remodeling. It has a triple helical collagen hydrolase activity. Mutations in the gene encoding this protein have been linked to pycnodysostosis.

Pycnodysostosis is a rare autosomal recessive skeletal dysplasia characterized by short stature, osteosclerosis, acro-osteolysis, frequent fractures, and skull deformities. Mutation in the gene encoding cathepsin K (CTSK), which is a lysosomal cysteine protease, has been found to be responsible for
Cysteinyl cathepsin K (CatK) is one of the most potent mammalian collagenases involved in cardiovascular disease. Here, we investigated the clinical predictive value of serum CatK levels in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF). We examined 134 patients with CHF
Gaucher disease is an inherited disorder caused by deficit of acid β-glucocerebrosidase, responsible for the degradation of glucosylceramide to ceramide and glucose. Although the disorder is primarily hematologic, bone is the second most commonly affected structure. Cathepsin K (CATK) is

Cathepsin K is the major collagenolytic protease in bone that facilitates physiological as well as pathological bone degradation. Despite its key role in bone remodeling and for being a highly sought-after drug target for the treatment of osteoporosis, the mechanism

Pycnodysostosis, an autosomal recessive skeletal dysplasia, is characterized by short stature, osteosclerosis, delayed cranial suture closure, hypoplastic mandible, acro-osteolysis, hypoplastic clavicle, and dental anomalies. The disorder is caused by CTSK gene defects, a gene localized on 1q21. To describe the
