Calpain-5 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CAPN5 gene.{{cite journal | vauthors = Matena K, Boehm T, Dear N | title = Genomic organization of mouse Capn5 and Capn6 genes confirms that they are a distinct calpain subfamily | journal = Genomics | volume = 48 | issue = 1 | pages = 117–20 |date=Apr 1998 | pmid = 9503024 | doi =10.1006/geno.1997.5133 }}{{cite journal | vauthors = Mugita N, Kimura Y, Ogawa M, Saya H, Nakao M | title = Identification of a novel, tissue-specific calpain htra-3; a human homologue of the Caenorhabditis elegans sex determination gene | journal = Biochem Biophys Res Commun | volume = 239 | issue = 3 | pages = 845–50 |date=Dec 1997 | pmid = 9367857 | doi = 10.1006/bbrc.1997.7571 }}{{cite web | title = Entrez Gene: CAPN5 calpain 5| url = https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?Db=gene&Cmd=ShowDetailView&TermToSearch=726}}

Calpains are calcium-dependent cysteine proteases involved in signal transduction in a variety of cellular processes. A functional calpain protein consists of an invariant small subunit and 1 of a family of large subunits. CAPN5 is one of the large subunits. Unlike some of the calpains, CAPN5 and CAPN6 lack a calmodulin-like domain IV. Because of the significant similarity to Caenorhabditis elegans sex determination gene tra-3, CAPN5 is also called as HTRA3.
