About Ctsk

Primary_assembly 2: 183,058,569-183,069,550 forward strand.mRatBN7.2:CM026975.1

This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 240 orthologues, 27 paralogues and is associated with 16 phenotypes. Biased expression in Uterus (RPKM 264.), Testes (RPKM 141.3) and 9 other tissues.

Summary

Predicted to enable several functions, including collagen binding activity; fibronectin binding activity; and proteoglycan binding activity. Involved in bone resorption and intramembranous ossification. Located in extracellular space and lysosome. Biomarker of intracranial aneurysm and otitis media. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in pycnodysostosis. Orthologous to human CTSK (Cathepsin K). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
