About Ctss

Primary_assembly 2: 183,086,437-183,114,483 forward strand.mRatBN7.2:CM026975.1

This gene has 3 transcripts (splice variants), 270 orthologues, 27 paralogues and is associated with 29 phenotypes. Biased expression in Spleen (RPKM 78.2), Brain (RPKM 595.9) and 9 other tissues.

Summary

Enables cysteine-type peptidase activity. Involved in bone resorption; metanephros development; and regulation of sensory perception of pain. Located in cell surface. Biomarker of intracranial aneurysm. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in neuropathy. Orthologous to human CTSS (Cathepsin S). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
