| Post Translational Modifications | N- and O-glycosylated. Undergoes proteolytic cleavage and activation by ADAM30. As well as the major heavy chain which starts at Leu-169, 2 minor forms starting at Gly-170 and Gly-171 have been identified. An additional form starting at Ala-168 has also been identified. |
| Function | Acid protease active in intracellular protein breakdown. Plays a role in APP processing following cleavage and activation by ADAM30 which leads to APP degradation. Involved in the pathogenesis of several diseases such as breast cancer and possibly Alzheimer disease. |
