Cst10 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Predicted to enable cysteine-type endopeptidase inhibitor activity. Involved in several processes, including bone mineralization; calcium ion homeostasis; and endochondral bone morphogenesis. Acts upstream of or within cell maturation and chondrocyte differentiation. Located in cytosol. Orthologous to human CST5 (cystatin D). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Cst10 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
