Summary: Enables endopeptidase activity and peptide binding activity. Involved in several processes, including protein catabolic process; synaptic vesicle endosomal processing; and vesicle-mediated transport in synapse. Is active in GABA-ergic synapse and presynaptic endosome. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Alzheimer's disease; breast cancer; and neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis 10. Orthologous to human CTSD (cathepsin D). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]

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.
