Napsa - napsin A aspartic peptidase Gene

Also Known as KAP; Kdap; NAP1; SNAPA; pronapsin

Species: Mus musculus

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 16541

Summary

Enables endopeptidase activity. Involved in membrane protein proteolysis. Located in alveolar lamellar body and lysosome. Is expressed in several structures, including lung and urinary system. Orthologous to human NAPSA (napsin A aspartic peptidase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
