| cathepsin | <protein> Intracellular proteolytic enzymes of animal tissues, such as cathepsin B, a lysosomal thiol proteinase, C, dipeptidyl peptidase, D, that has pepsin like specificity, G, similar to chymotrypsin, H, that possesses aminopeptidase activity, N, that attacks N terminal peptides of collagen and so on.
