CTSA encodes a member of the peptidase S10 family of serine carboxypeptidases. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants, at least one of which encodes a preproprotein that is proteolytically processed to generate two chains that comprise the heterodimeric active enzyme. Cathepsin A possesses deamidase, esterase and carboxypeptidase activities and acts as a scaffold in the lysosomal multienzyme complex. Mutations in CTSA are associated with galactosialidosis. 蛋白別名為：CTSA; PPGB; Lysosomal protective protein; Carboxypeptidase C; Carboxypeptidase L; Cathepsin A; Protective protein cathepsin A; PPCA; Protective protein for beta-galactosidase;基因ID為：5476；蛋白質ID:P10619
