Gene Symbol:

Ctsw Mus musculus

Full name:

cathepsin W

Synonyms:

lymphopain, cathepsin W

Genomic Location:

Chr 19: 5465242-5468498

Description:

This gene encodes a member of the peptidase C1 (papain) family of cysteine proteases. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate a mature protein product. Expression of the encoded protein is upregulated following lymphocyte activation. Data from a human cell line suggests that the encoded enzyme may be important for viral e...

This gene encodes a member of the peptidase C1 (papain) family of cysteine proteases. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate a mature protein product. Expression of the encoded protein is upregulated following lymphocyte activation. Data from a human cell line suggests that the encoded enzyme may be important for viral entry into host cells.
