General description

Cathepsin K is expressed as procathepsin K, which is the inactive proenzyme of cathepsin K. Cathepsin K is a lysosomal cysteine protease and part of the papain cysteine protease family. It is expressed in osteoclasts. The gene encoding this protein is localized on human chromosome 1q21.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Cathepsin K has a role in bone resorption and remodeling. It has a triple helical collagen hydrolase activity. Mutations in the gene encoding this protein have been linked to pycnodysostosis.

Physical form

0.5 mg/mL solution in 25 mM Na2HPO4 and 500 mM NaCl (pH 7.0) with 50% glycerol.
