CPB2 - carboxypeptidase B2 Gene
Also Known as CPU; PCPB; TAFI
Species: Homo sapiens
About CPB2
This gene has 4 transcripts (splice variants), 222 orthologues and 8 paralogues. Restricted expression toward liver (RPKM 288.0).
Summary
Carboxypeptidases are Enzymes that hydrolyze C-terminal peptide bonds. The Carboxypeptidase family includes metallo-, serine, and cysteine carboxypeptidases. According to their substrate specificity, these Enzymes are referred to as Carboxypeptidase A (cleaving aliphatic residues) or Carboxypeptidase B (cleaving basic amino residues). The protein encoded by this gene is activated by trypsin and acts on Carboxypeptidase B substrates. After Thrombin activation, the mature protein downregulates fibrinolysis. Polymorphisms have been described for this gene and its promoter region. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2013]
