Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 1472
Gene name Cystatin S
Gene symbol CST4
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
-
Chromosome 20
Chromosome location 20p11.21
Summary The cystatin superfamily encompasses proteins that contain multiple cystatin-like sequences. Some of the members are active cysteine protease inhibitors, while others have lost or perhaps never acquired this inhibitory activity. There are three inhibitory

Protein name Cystatin-S (Cystatin-4) (Cystatin-SA-III) (Salivary acidic protein 1)
Protein function This protein strongly inhibits papain and ficin, partially inhibits stem bromelain and bovine cathepsin C, but does not inhibit porcine cathepsin B or clostripain. Papain is inhibited non-competitively.
