Target Information
In chickens, Cathepsin K (CTSK) is a cysteine protease primarily expressed in lysosomes, involved in the degradation of intracellular proteins. CTSK plays a key role in bone remodeling by degrading collagen in the bone matrix, promoting bone resorption. Additionally, CTSK regulates immune responses, affecting antigen presentation and inflammatory reactions. CTSK is crucial for bone health and immune function in the growth and development of chickens.
