Background
| Function | FUNCTION: Thiol protease which is believed to participate in intracellular degradation and turnover of proteins (PubMed:12220505). Cleaves matrix extracellular phosphoglycoprotein MEPE (PubMed:12220505). Involved in the solubilization of cross-linked TG/thyroglobulin in the thyroid follicle lumen (By similarity). Has also been implicated in tumor invasion and metastasis (PubMed:3972105). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P10605, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12220505, ECO:0000269|PubMed:3972105}. |
| Pathway | |
| Protein Families | Peptidase C1 family |
| Tissue Specificity | Expressed in the stratum spinosum of the epidermis. Weak expression is detected in the stratum granulosum. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:28457472}. |
