Cathepsin A/protective protein: an unusual lysosomal multifunctional protein.

Cellular and molecular life sciences : CMLS - 1 Dec 1999

Hiraiwa M

Abstract excerpt

Cathepsin A/protective protein [3.4.16.5], carboxypeptidase A, is a lysosomal serine protease with structural homology to yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) carboxypeptidase Y. Cathepsin A is a member of the alpha/beta hydrolase fold family and has been suggested to share a common ancestral relationship with other alpha/beta hydrolase fold enzymes, such as cholinesterases. Several lines of evidence indicate that...
