Cpe - carboxypeptidase E Gene

Also Known as CPH; fat; Cph1; Cph-1; NF-alpha1

Species: Mus musculus

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 12876

Summary

This gene encodes Carboxypeptidase E, a prohormone-processing exopeptidase found in secretory granules of endocrine and neuroendocrine cells. The encoded preproprotein undergoes proteolytic processing to generate a mature, functional enzyme that cleaves the C-terminal basic residues of protein substrates. A missense mutation in this gene is responsible for the obesity phenotype in a mouse model known as the "fat mouse." Mice lacking the functional product of this gene exhibit impaired processing of multiple peptide Hormones such as proinsulin, prodynorphin, proneurotensin, promelanin-concentrating hormone and pro-opiomelanocortin.
