LNPEP - leucyl and cystinyl aminopeptidase Gene
Also Known as CAP; IRAP; PLAP; P-LAP
Species: Homo sapiens
About LNPEP
This gene has 5 transcripts (splice variants), 220 orthologues and 11 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in lymph node (RPKM 8.2), appendix (RPKM 6.4) and 25 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a zinc-dependent Aminopeptidase that cleaves vasopressin, oxytocin, lys-bradykinin, met-enkephalin, dynorphin A and Other peptide Hormones. The protein can be secreted in maternal serum, reside in intracellular vesicles with the insulin-responsive glucose transporter GLUT4, or form a type II integral membrane glycoprotein. The protein catalyzes the final step in the conversion of Angiotensinogen to angiotensin IV (AT4) and is also a receptor for AT4. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
