Lysosome . Apical cell membrane ; Peripheral membrane protein ; Extracellular side . Cytoplasmic vesicle, secretory vesicle, chromaffin granule . Secreted, extracellular space . Secreted . Localizes to the apical membrane of thyroid epithelial cells. Released at extracellular space by activated dendritic cells and macrophages. .; [Isoform 2]: Nucleus . Translation initiation at downstream start sites allows the synthesis of isoforms that are devoid of a signal peptide and do not transit through the endoplasmic reticulum to localize to the nucleus (PubMed:15099520). Nuclear location varies during the cell cycle, with higher levels during S phase (PubMed:15099520). . |
Background: |
The protein encoded by this gene is a lysosomal cysteine proteinase that plays a major role in intracellular protein catabolism. Its substrates include collagen and elastin, as well as alpha-1 protease inhibitor, a major controlling element of neutrophil elastase activity. The encoded protein has been implicated in several pathologic processes, including myofibril necrosis in myopathies and in myocardial ischemia, and in the renal tubular response to proteinuria. This protein, which is a member of the peptidase C1 family, is a dimer composed of disulfide-linked heavy and light chains, both produced from a single protein precursor. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2012], |
