About AZU1

Cytogenetic location: 19p13.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 19:827,837-832,018 (from NCBI)

This gene has 2 transcripts (splice variants), 1 gene allele, 238 orthologues and 6 paralogues. Restricted expression toward bone marrow (RPKM 1256.4).

Summary

Azurophil granules, specialized lysosomes of the neutrophil, contain at least 10 proteins implicated in the killing of Microorganisms. This gene encodes a preproprotein that is proteolytically processed to generate a mature azurophil granule Antibiotic protein, with monocyte chemotactic and antimicrobial activity. It is also an important multifunctional inflammatory mediator. This encoded protein is a member of the serine protease gene family but it is not a serine proteinase, because the active site serine and histidine residues are replaced. The genes encoding this protein, neutrophil Elastase 2, and proteinase 3 are in a cluster located at chromosome 19pter. All 3 genes are expressed coordinately and their protein products are packaged together into azurophil granules during neutrophil differentiation. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2015]
