About Rnpep

Primary_assembly 13: 46,699,463-46,717,998 reverse strand.mRatBN7.2:CM026986.1

This gene has 2 transcripts (splice variants), 156 orthologues, 10 paralogues and is associated with 6 phenotypes. Biased expression in Kidney (RPKM 14.6), Testes (RPKM 139.5) and 9 other tissues.

Summary

Enables metalloaminopeptidase activity; peptide binding activity; and transition metal ion binding activity. Involved in several processes, including aging; negative regulation of blood pressure; and retina development in camera-type eye. Located in several cellular components, including Golgi apparatus; external side of plasma membrane; and secretory granule. Used to study hypertension. Biomarker of hypertension. Orthologous to human RNPEP (arginyl Aminopeptidase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
