Summary
Predicted to enable carboxypeptidase activity and cysteine-type endopeptidase activity. Predicted to be involved in epithelial tube branching involved in lung morphogenesis; negative regulation of plasminogen activation; and proteolysis involved in protein catabolic process. Located in several cellular components, including cell surface; extracellular space; and growth cone. Orthologous to human CTSZ (cathepsin Z). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]
Expression
Biased expression in Spleen (RPKM 1036.3), Thymus (RPKM 314.4) and 8 other tissues See more

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
