Cathepsin V (EC 3.4.22.43, Cathepsin L2, cathepsin U) is an enzyme.[1][2][3] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

The recombinant enzyme hydrolyses proteins (serum albumin, collagen) and synthetic substrates (Z-Phe-Arg-NHMec > Z-Leu-Arg-NHMec > Z-Val-Arg-NHMec)

Cathepsin V is a human lysosomal cysteine endopeptidase.
