Summary: This gene encodes a member of the cathepsin family of cysteine proteases that is highly expressed in osteoclasts and is involved in the degradation of collagen and other matrix proteins in bone. The encoded preproprotein undergoes proteolytic processing to generate a mature, functional enzyme. Mice lacking the encoded protein exhibit phenotypic features of pycnodysostosis such as increased bone density and bone deformity, which become progressively more pronounced with age.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
