Summary: Enables kininogen binding activity; peptidase activity; and peptide binding activity. Involved in several processes, including autophagic cell death; decidualization; and response to odorant. Located in several cellular components, including external side of plasma membrane; microvillus; and perikaryon. Used to study hepatocellular carcinoma. Biomarker of several diseases, including brain ischemia; hyperthyroidism; muscular atrophy; otitis media; and pancreatitis. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Orthologous to several human genes including CTSV (cathepsin V). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

The results revealed that cathepsin B and L activity is required for maintenance of a fully differentiated state of thyrocytes featuring Taar1-bearing primary cilia.
Title: Treatment of rat thyrocytes in vitro with cathepsin B and L inhibitors results in disruption of primary cilia leading to redistribution of the trace amine associated receptor 1 to the endoplasmic reticulum.
In contrast to the weak levels of cathepsin L in normal glomeruli, on days 4 and 8, strong immunostaining was detected in almost all podocytes when proteinuria and pathological changes of the podocytes developed. Cathepsin L was reduced after day 28, but remained in a focal and segmental manner. Cystatin B, an intracellular inhibitor, was not detected in podocytes.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
