About CTSH

Cytogenetic location: 15q25.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 15:78,921,058-78,945,046 (from NCBI)

This gene has 69 transcripts (splice variants), 225 orthologues, 12 paralogues and is associated with 1 phenotype. Broad expression in lung (RPKM 144.1), kidney (RPKM 97.7) and 24 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a lysosomal cysteine proteinase important in the overall degradation of lysosomal proteins. It is composed of a dimer of disulfide-linked heavy and LIGHT chains, both produced from a single protein precursor. The encoded protein, which belongs to the peptidase C1 protein family, can act both as an Aminopeptidase and as an endopeptidase. Increased expression of this gene has been correlated with malignant progression of prostate tumors. Alternate splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2016]
