Cathepsin E (EC 3.4.23.34, slow-moving proteinase, erythrocyte membrane aspartic proteinase, SMP, EMAP, non-pepsin proteinase, cathepsin D-like acid proteinase, cathepsin E-like acid proteinase, cathepsin D-type proteinase) is an enzyme.[1][2][3][4] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

Similar to cathepsin D, but slightly broader specificity

This enzyme is found in stomach, spleen, erythrocyte membrane.
