General annotation (Comments)

Function

Thiol protease which is believed to participate in intracellular degradation and turnover of proteins. Has also been implicated in tumor invasion and metastasis.

Catalytic activity

Hydrolysis of proteins with broad specificity for peptide bonds. Preferentially cleaves -Arg-Arg-|-Xaa bonds in small molecule substrates (thus differing from cathepsin L). In addition to being an endopeptidase, shows peptidyl-dipeptidase activity, liberating C-terminal dipeptides.

Subunit structure

Dimer of a heavy chain and a light chain cross-linked by a disulfide bond.

Subcellular location

Lysosome. Melanosome. Note=Identified by mass spectrometry in melanosome fractions from stage I to stage IV.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the peptidase C1 family.
