Cathepsin S (P25774)

Uniprot ID P25774
Protein Name Cathepsin S
Gene Name CTSS
Species Homo sapiens (Human)
Signal peptide(a) Y Secretome P(b)
Function Thiol protease. Key protease responsible for the removal of the invariant chain from MHC class II molecules. The bond-specificity of this proteinase is in part similar to the specificities of cathepsin L.

(a) The Signal peptide D-score cutoff for "YES"(having signal peptide) is 0.45.
(b) Non-classically secreted proteins should obtain an NN-score(Neural Networks score) exceeding the normal threshold of 0.5, but not at the same time be predicted to contain a signal peptide.
