Target
-
Function
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. -
Tissue specificity
Predominantly expressed in osteclasts (bones). -
Involvement in disease
Defects in CTSK are the cause of pycnodysostosis (PKND) [MIM:265800]. PKND is an autosomal recessive osteochondrodysplasia characterized by osteosclerosis and short stature. -
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the peptidase C1 family. -
Cellular localization
Lysosome. - Information by UniProt

Secondary
All lanes : Goat polyclonal to Rabbit IgG - H&L - Pre-Adsorbed (HRP) at 1/3000 dilution
Developed using the ECL technique.
Performed under reducing conditions.
Predicted band size: 37 kDa
Observed band size: 24 kDa why is the actual band size different from the predicted?
Exposure time: 20 minutes
We hypothesize that the 24 kDa band represents the mature form of Cathepsin K.
