Background
This gene encodes the cytosolic form of a metalloaminopeptidase that catalyzes the cleavage of the N-terminal amino acid adjacent to a proline residue. The gene product may play a role in degradation and maturation of tachykinins, neuropeptides, and peptide hormones. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, Nov 2009],
Function
catalytic activity:Release of any N-terminal amino acid, including proline, that is linked to proline, even from a dipeptide or tripeptide.,cofactor:Manganese.,enzyme regulation:Inhibited by apstatin and the metal ion chelators EDTA and 1,10-phenanthroline. Partially inhibited by dithiothreitol. Not inhibited by enalaprilat or amastatin.,similarity:Belongs to the peptidase M24B family.,subunit:Homodimer.,tissue specificity:Expressed in all tissues tested, including pancreas, heart, muscle, kidney, liver, lung and brain. Highest levels in pancreas.,
