Secondary Information

Presence in other biological fluids/tissue/cells lung secretions, liver, spleen, kidney, chorion,
Protein Function cysteine proteinase; degrades proteins such as caseins, insulin and collagen showing broad substrate specificity; exert an antihypertensive effect; has role in generation of thyroid hormones by proteolytic processing of thyroglobulin; role in calcium homeostasis; linked to neoplasia and metastasis; induces breakdown of cartilage proteoglycan. Cathepsin B is a cysteine-protease enzyme that plays significant role in metalloproteinase regulation. 
Biochemical Properties Endopeptidase; activated by DTT, optimum pH is 6; inactivated at pH above 7; broad substrate specificity; partially survived heat treatments; similar to chymosin in its cleavage sites; stable between pH 4.0 and pH 6.5, but it was very unstable at alkaline pH values. It was stable on heat treatment at 35 "C, 42 "C, and 47 "C for 15 min at pH 6.0; requires the presence of a sulfhydryl compound plus EDTA for maximal activity; inhibited by monoiodoacetate, microbial inhibitors such as leupeptin, chymostatin, and antipain, L-l-tosylamido- 2-phenylethylchloromethyl ketone, E-64
Significance in milk Cleaves ß and αS1 caseins; result in plasmin-like activity in high SCC milk and dairy products;
PTMs 111th Asn is glycosylated with high mannose type sugar

Additional Comments Potentially influence the yield and quality of dairy products; significantly important in cancer therapy; inactivated aldolases (muscle and liver) and glucokinase as reported in rat liver; Amino acid analysis showed that crystalline cathepsin B contained hexosamine, and that the contents of glycine, aspartic acid, and glutamic acid are high and the content of methionine is low, as in cathepsin B from human liver
