Protein Information

Description

Protein function:

Thiol protease. Has dipeptidylpeptidase activity. Can act as both an exopeptidase and endopeptidase. Activates serine proteases such as elastase, cathepsin g and granzymes a and b. Can also activate neuraminidase and Factor XIII.

Catalytic activity:

Release of an N-terminal dipeptide, xaa-yaa-|-zaa-, except when xaa is arg or lys, or yaa or zaa is pro.

Subunit:

Tetramer of heterotrimers consisting of exclusion domain, heavy- and light chains.

Subcellular location:

Lysosome

Post-translational modification:

N-glycosylated

Cofactor:

Binds 1 chloride ion per heavy chain.

Induction:

Up-regulated in lymphocytes by Il2.

Tissue specificity:

Ubiquitous. Highly expressed in lung, kidney and placenta. Detected at intermediate levels in colon, small intestine, spleen and pancreas.

Similarity:

Belongs to the peptidase C1 family.
