Cathepsin L splice variants in human breast cell lines

Transcripts of the lysosomal cysteine proteinase cathepsin L are spliced into five variants (L-A, L-A1, LA-2, LA-3 and L-B), which have similar stabilities but different translation efficiencies, thus potentially yielding diverse amounts of the protein...
