Application

Application Comment Organism
diagnostics increased cathepsin-B expression is predictive of more aggressive tumour behaviour over time and can be regarded as an unfavourable and independent tumour marker for endometrial cancer patients with a long follow-up Homo sapiens

Localization

Localization Comment Organism GeneOntology No. Textmining
endosome cathepsin B is synthesised as a pre-pro-enzyme and the primary pathways for its normal trafficking to the lysosome utilise mannose-6-phosphate receptors. Inactive pro-cathepsin-B is processed to active single and double chain forms of cathepsin-B in the late endosomes and lysosomes, respectively Homo sapiens 5768
-
extracellular under certain conditions cathepsin-B may be secreted extracellularly as a pro-enzyme that requires proteolytic activation Homo sapiens
