Cathepsin Z (CATZ)

Target (abbrv.) CATZ
Target (full name) Cathepsin Z
Somalogic ID (Sequence ID) SL008380 (4971-1_1)
Entrez Gene Symbol CTSZ
UniProt ID Q9UBR2
UniProt Comment
  • Exhibits carboxy-monopeptidase as well as carboxy-dipeptidase activity.
Reactome
  • Lysosome Vesicle Biogenesis
  • Metabolism of Angiotensinogen to Angiotensins

Lysosomal protective protein (Cathepsin A)

Target (abbrv.) Cathepsin A
Target (full name) Lysosomal protective protein
Somalogic ID (Sequence ID) SL009213 (3179-51_2)
Entrez Gene Symbol CTSA
UniProt ID P10619
UniProt Comment
  • Protective protein appears to be essential for both the activity of beta-galactosidase and neuraminidase, it associates with these enzymes and exerts a protective function necessary for their stability and activity. This protein is also a carboxypeptidase and can deamidate tachykinins.
Reactome
  • Glycosphingolipid metabolism
  • MHC class II antigen presentation
  • Sialic acid metabolism

All locus annotations are based on the sentinel SNP (rs10860794) and 8 proxy variant(s) that is/are in linkage disequilibrium r2 ≥ 0.8. Linkage disequilibrium is based on data from the 1000 Genomes Project, phase 3 version 5, European population and was retrieved using SNiPA's Block Annotation feature.
