Background: Cathepsin H is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CTSH gene. 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.
Description: Human liver.

Molecular Weight: 28 kDa

Pathways: Positive Regulation of Endopeptidase Activity
