Background Information

CTSD (Cathepsin D) also named CPSD, belongs to the peptidase A1 family. It is ubiquitously expressed and is involved in proteolytic degradation, cell invasion, and apoptosis. Human CTSD is synthesized as a 52-kDa precursor that is converted into an active 48-kDa single-chain intermediate in the endosomes, and then into a fully active mature form, composed of a 34-kDa heavy chain and a 14-kDa light chain, in the lysosomes. It is a lysosomal acid protease found in neutrophils and monocytes and involved in the pathogenesis of several diseases such as breast cancer and possibly Alzheimer disease (PMID: 27114232, PMID: 30717773, PMID: 30051532).
