Gene Symbol:

Cpa1 Mus musculus

Full name:

carboxypeptidase A1, pancreatic

Synonyms:

0910001L12Rik, Cpa, carboxypeptidase A1

Genomic Location:

Chr 6: 30589221-30595361

Description:

This gene encodes carboxypeptidase A, a zinc-dependent metalloprotease that cleaves peptide bonds at the C-terminus of protein substrates. The encoded preproprotein undergoes proteolytic activation to generate a mature, functional enzyme. This gene is expressed in pancreas, the encoded protein is a major component of digestive enzymes secreted by p...

View Full Description

This gene encodes carboxypeptidase A, a zinc-dependent metalloprotease that cleaves peptide bonds at the C-terminus of protein substrates. The encoded preproprotein undergoes proteolytic activation to generate a mature, functional enzyme. This gene is expressed in pancreas, the encoded protein is a major component of digestive enzymes secreted by pancreas and plays an important role in the process of digestion. This gene is located in a cluster of related carboxypeptidase genes on chromosome 6.
