Relevance 

Calpain 9 is an intracellular, calcium dependent cysteine protease. Calpain 9 was first described in the digestive tract, and a shorter form with a deletion in the catalytic domain has been associated with gastric cancer. Recombinant calpain 9 has been expressed, and is unstable unless expressed with the calpain small subunit (calpain S1), suggesting that calpain 9 associates with the small subunit in vivo. The recombinant calpain 9 showed caseinolytic activity, albeit at a lower level than native calpain 1 or calpain 2, and a calcium sensitivity intermediate between calpain 1 and calpain 2. Calpastatin blocked the caseinolytic activity. Domains in the large subunit include the amino terminal domain I, the proteinase domain II, domain III, and the EF hand domain IV. The latent large subunit migrates at about 79 kD on reduced SDS PAGE gels, and truncation at the amino terminal end yields an approximately 58 kD form. A cascade of smaller forms can be seen with further activation. It is expressed predominantly in the stomach although a shorter form with a deletion in the catalytic domain has been associated with gastric cancer.
