General description
Research area: Cell Signaling
Cathepsin G is stored in its active form in azurophil granules of neutrophils or monocytes. Its mature form contains one potential glycan-binding site and three disulfide bonds.

Application
Cathepsin G, Human Neutrophil has been used to determine the in vitro bactericidal activities of cathepsin G and for in vitro digestion of plasma/acute wound fluids.
Biochem/physiol Actions
This protease cleaves the triple-helix structure of type I collagen in a restricted manner and degrades nonhelical regions of type I and II collagens, fibronectin, aggrecan, and elastin. Additionally, cathepsin G activates ProMMP-3 and -8. Cathepsin G serves as a chemoattractant for human phagocytes and enhances the random motility of T cells. Additionally, it initiates chemotaxis, activates ERK1/2 and p38 MAPK, and facilitates the translocation of PKCζ to the cell membrane, without inducing a detectable calcium flux. Other biological functions of cathepsin G include: ECM components and plasma proteins degradation, bactericidal actions, cleavage of inflammatory mediators, conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II, platelet activation and induction of airway submucosal gland secretion.

Endogenous and bacterial proteases play important roles in wound healing and infection. Analysis of alterations in the low-molecular-weight peptidome by individual enzymes could therefore provide insight into proteolytic events occurring in wounds and may aid in the discovery of biomarkers.

Polymorphonuclear neutrophils form a primary line of defense against bacterial infections using complementary oxidative and non-oxidative pathways to destroy phagocytized pathogens. The three serine proteases elastase, proteinase 3 and cathepsin G, are major components of the neutrophil primary granules that

Although the Streptococcus pneumoniae polysaccharide capsule is an important virulence factor, ~ 15% of carriage isolates are nonencapsulated. Nonencapsulated S. pneumoniae are a cause of mucosal infections. Recent studies have shown that neutrophils kill S. pneumoniae predominately through neutrophil proteases, such as elastase
