Gene Information
human ... CTSK(1513)
General description
The protein encoded by this gene is a lysosomal cysteine proteinase involved in bone remodeling and resorption. This protein, which is a member of the peptidase C1 protein family, is predominantly expressed in osteoclasts. However, the encoded protein is also expressed in a significant fraction of human breast cancers, where it could contribute to tumor invasiveness. Mutations in this gene are the cause of pycnodysostosis, an autosomal recessive disease characterized by osteosclerosis and short stature. This gene may be subject to RNA editing.

Biochem/physiol Actions
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.

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

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

The in vitro activation of the recombinant purified human cathepsin K (EC 3.4.22.38) was examined by mutagenesis. Cathepsin K was expressed as a secreted proenzyme using baculovirus-infected Sf21 insect cells. Spontaneous in vitro activation of procathepsin K occurred at pH
