Gene information for XPNPEP2 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID7512
Official gene symbolXPNPEP2
Full nameX-prolyl aminopeptidase (aminopeptidase P) 2, membrane-bound
Aliases,-,
Gene summaryAminopeptidase P is a hydrolase specific for N-terminal imido bonds, which are common to several collagen degradation products, neuropeptides, vasoactive peptides, and cytokines. Structurally, the enzyme is a member of the 'pita bread fold' family and occurs in mammalian tissues in both soluble and GPI-anchored membrane-bound forms. A membrane-bound and soluble form of this enzyme have been identified as products of two separate genes. [provided by RefSeq]
