LONP2 - lon peptidase 2, peroxisomal Gene
Also Known as LONP; PLON; LONPL; PSLON
Species: Homo sapiens
About LONP2
This gene has 9 transcripts (splice variants), 213 orthologues and 1 paralogue. Ubiquitous expression in thyroid (RPKM 23.1), liver (RPKM 21.0) and 25 other tissues.
Summary
In human, peroxisomes function primarily to catalyze fatty acid beta-oxidation and, as a by-product, produce hydrogen peroxide and superoxide. The protein encoded by this gene is an ATP-dependent protease that likely plays a role in maintaining overall peroxisome homeostasis as well as proteolytically degrading peroxisomal proteins damaged by oxidation. The protein has an N-terminal Lon N substrate recognition domain, an ATPase domain, a proteolytic domain, and, in some isoforms, a C-terminal peroxisome targeting sequence. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2017]
