Word Map on EC 3.4.22.1

Reaction

Hydrolysis of proteins with broad specificity for peptide bonds. Preferentially cleaves -Arg-Arg-/- bonds in small molecule substrates (thus differing from cathepsin L). In addition to being an endopeptidase, shows peptidyl-dipeptidase activity, liberating C-terminal dipeptides =

LITERATURE
SOURCE
-
cathepsin B is synthesised as a pre-pro-enzyme and the primary pathways for its normal trafficking to the lysosome utilise mannose-6-phosphate receptors. Inactive pro-cathepsin-B is processed to active single and double chain forms of cathepsin-B in the late endosomes and lysosomes, respectively
Manually annotated by BRENDA team
