Cathepsin L1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CTSL1 gene. [ 3 ] [ 4 ] [ 5 ] The protein is a cysteine cathepsin , a lysosomal cysteine protease that plays a major role in intracellular protein catabolism .
Cancer, Cathepsin D is a mitogen and "it attenuates the anti-tumor immune response of decaying chemokines to inhibit the function of dendritic cells". Cathepsins B and L are involved in matrix degradation and cell invasion. [3] Stroke [4] Traumatic brain injury [5] Alzheimer's disease [6] Arthritis [7]
[3] [10] [9] Many papain-like protease enzymes function as monomers, though a few, such as cathepsin C (Dipeptidyl-peptidase I), are homotetramers. The mature monomer structure is characteristically divided into two lobes or subdomains, known as the L-domain and the R-domain , where the active site is located between them. [1]
The production of cathelicidin is up-regulated by vitamin D. [31] [32] SAAP-148 (a synthetic antimicrobial and antibiofilm peptide) is a modified version of LL-37 that has enhanced antimicrobial activities compared to LL-37. In particular, SAAP-148 was more efficient in killing bacteria under physiological conditions. [33]
Cathepsin L may refer to: Cathepsin L1, a human protease enzyme encoded by the CTSL gene and known for its role in viral entry; Cathepsin L2, a human protease enzyme ...
The function of these cysteine and aspartic proteases is generally unknown within bone, and they are expressed at much lower levels than cathepsin K. Studies on cathepsin L knockout mice have been mixed, with a report of reduced trabecular bone in homozygous and heterozygous cathepsin L knockout mice compared to wild-type and another report ...
