Description
Cathepsin K, also known as CTSK is an enzyme which in humans is encoded by the CTSK gene.
Cathepsin K is also expressed in a significant fraction of human breast cancers, where it could contribute to tumor invasiveness. Mutations in this gene are the cause of pycnodysostosis, an autosomal recessive disease characterized by osteosclerosis and short stature.
