Synthesized peptide derived from human CATB (Cleaved-Asn126)
Alternative Names:
Cathepsin B (EC 3.4.22.1, APP secretase, APPS, Cathepsin B1) [Cleaved into: Cathepsin B light chain, Cathepsin B heavy chain]
catalytic activity:Hydrolysis of proteins with broad specificity for peptide bonds. Preferentially cleaves -Arg-Arg-|-Xaa bonds in small molecule substrates (thus differing from cathepsin L). In addition to being an endopeptidase, shows peptidyl-dipeptid
