Protein Structure
UniProt Annotation
Function Calcium-regulated non-lysosomal thiol-protease. Involved in membrane trafficking in the gastric surface mucus cells (pit cells) and may involve the membrane trafficking of mucus cells via interactions with coat protein. Proteolytically cleaves the beta- subunit of coatomer complex (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
Subcellular Localization Cytoplasm {ECO:0000250}. Golgi apparatus {ECO:0000250}.
