Background
CTSZ, Cathepsin Z, Cathepsin P, Cathepsin XThe protein encoded by CTSZ is a lysosomal cysteine proteinase and member of the peptidase C1 family. It exhibits both carboxy-monopeptidase and carboxy-dipeptidase activities. Cathepsin Z has also been known as cathepsin X and cathepsin P. CTSZ is expressed ubiquitously in cancer cell lines and primary tumors and, like other members of this family, may be involved in tumorigenesis.
