About Ctsb

Primary_assembly 15: 37,389,629-37,410,500 forward strand.mRatBN7.2:CM026988.1

This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 224 orthologues, 27 paralogues and is associated with 47 phenotypes. Biased expression in Kidney (RPKM 496.1), Spleen (RPKM 2256.) and 9 other tissues.

Summary

Enables several functions, including cysteine-type endopeptidase activity; kininogen binding activity; and protein self-association. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to mechanical stimulus; response to ethanol; and response to interleukin-4. Located in several cellular components, including apical plasma membrane; external side of plasma membrane; and sarcolemma. Colocalizes with caveola and perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Used to study hepatocellular carcinoma and high grade glioma. Biomarker of several diseases, including acute necrotizing pancreatitis; cerebrovascular disease (multiple); fascioliasis; fatty liver disease; and renal tubular acidosis. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in diabetes mellitus. Orthologous to human CTSB (Cathepsin B). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
