Gene information for DPP3 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID10072
Official gene symbolDPP3
Full namedipeptidyl-peptidase 3
Aliases,DPPIII,FLJ11387,FLJ22331,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a protein that is a member of the M49 family of metallopeptidases. This cytoplasmic protein binds a single zinc ion with its zinc-binding motif (HELLGH) and has post-proline dipeptidyl aminopeptidase activity, cleaving Xaa-Pro dipeptides from the N-termini of proteins. Increased activity of this protein is associated with endometrial and ovarian cancers. Alternate transcriptional splice variants have been characterized. [provided by RefSeq]
