NCBI Summary for CTSK

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. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2013]

UniProt Comments for CTSK

CTSK: Closely involved in osteoclastic bone resorption and may participate partially in the disorder of bone remodeling. Displays potent endoprotease activity against fibrinogen at acid pH. May play an important role in extracellular matrix degradation. Defects in CTSK are the cause of pycnodysostosis (PKND). PKND is an autosomal recessive osteochondrodysplasia characterized by osteosclerosis and short stature. Belongs to the peptidase C1 family.

Protein type: EC 3.4.22.38; Protease

Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 1q21

Cellular Component: extracellular space; extracellular region

Molecular Function: collagen binding; proteoglycan binding; protein binding; fibronectin binding; cysteine-type endopeptidase activity; cysteine-type peptidase activity

Biological Process: collagen catabolic process; extracellular matrix disassembly; extracellular matrix organization and biogenesis; intramembranous ossification; proteolysis involved in cellular protein catabolic process; toll-like receptor signaling pathway; innate immune response; proteolysis; bone resorption

Disease: Pycnodysostosis
