Cathepsin C is a tetrameric lysosomal protease that acts as a dipeptidyl-peptidase due to the presence of the exclusion domain that is unique among papain-like cysteine proteases. Here we describe a recombinant form of cathepsin C lacking its exclusion domain (CatCΔEx) produced in a bacterial expression system (E. coli). CatCΔEx is a monomer with endoprotease activity and affinity for hydrophobic residues such as Phe, Leu or Pro, but not Val, in the P2 position. As opposed to cathepsin C, it does not require chloride ions for its activity. Despite lower turnover rates of hydrolysis of synthetic substrates, CatCΔEx has elastolytic and gelatinolytic activity comparable to other cysteine cathepsins.
