General description
Cathepsin D is an aspartic protease, which is located in lysosomes. It is involved in protein catabolism and maintains hormone and antigen processing. Cathepsin D is implicated in neoplasia and neurodegenerative changes. It regulates lysosomal proteolysis and endogenous fibrinolysis.
Application
Cathepsin D from human liver has been used:
- in β-secretase activity assay
- for enzymatic degradation of amyloid β 1-42
- in microinjection of human foreskin fibroblasts
Biochem/physiol Actions
Cathepsin D is an endosomal-lysosomal aspartic protease implicated in breast cancer metastasis and Alzheimer′s disease. Lysosomal release of cathepsin D has been found to precede cytochrome c release and loss of membrane potential in apoptotic human foreskin fibroblasts. Cathepsin D levels in PC12 cells increase 12 to 24 hours after apoptosis is induced.
Other Notes
Contains α, β and γ isoenzymes as observed by isoelectric-focusing.
Unit Definition
