Gene information for TPP2 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID7174
Official gene symbolTPP2
Full nametripeptidyl peptidase II
Aliases,FLJ40359,TPP-2,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a mammalian peptidase that, at neutral pH, removes tripeptides from the N terminus of longer peptides. The protein has a specialized function that is essential for some MHC class I antigen presentation. The protein is a high molecular mass serine exopeptidase; the amino acid sequence surrounding the serine residue at the active site is similar to the peptidases of the subtilisin class rather than the trypsin class.
