Found in lysosomes, digestive organs and immune cells, they degrade proteins, nucleic acids, lipids and carbohydrates. Their activity maintains cellular homeostasis, supports nutrient acquisition and protects against pathogens, while dysregulation contributes to metabolic and degenerative diseases.
