Gene Symbol CTSD
Gene Full Name cathepsin D
Background This gene encodes a lysosomal aspartyl protease composed of a dimer of disulfide-linked heavy and light chains, both produced from a single protein precursor. This proteinase, which is a member of the peptidase C1 family, has a specificity similar to but narrower than that of pepsin A. Transcription of this gene is initiated from several sites, including one which is a start site for an estrogen-regulated transcript. Mutations in this gene are involved in the pathogenesis of several diseases, including breast cancer and possibly Alzheimer disease. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Function Acid protease active in intracellular protein breakdown. Involved in the pathogenesis of several diseases such as breast cancer and possibly Alzheimer disease. [UniProt]
Cellular Localization Lysosome. Melanosome. Secreted, extracellular space. Note=Identified by mass spectrometry in melanosome fractions from stage I to stage IV. In aortic samples, detected as an extracellular protein loosely bound to the matrix (PubMed:20551380). [UniProt]
Calculated MW 45 kDa
PTM N- and O-glycosylated.

Undergoes proteolytic cleavage and activation by ADAM30.

As well as the major heavy chain which starts at Leu-169, 2 minor forms starting at Gly-170 and Gly-171 have been identified (PubMed:1426530). An additional form starting at Ala-168 has also been identified (PubMed:27333034). [UniProt]
