关于 CPA5

功能概要

羧肽酶的功能范围从食物的消化到神经内分泌肽的选择性生物合成。羧肽酶 A/B 亚家族的成员，如 CPA5，包含一个大约 90 个氨基酸的前区，有助于活性羧肽酶结构域的折叠。 pro 区域的切割激活酶 (Wei 等人，2002 [PubMed 11836249]) 。[OMIM 提供，2008 年 3 月]

Carboxypeptidases have functions ranging from digestion of food to selective biosynthesis of neuroendocrine Peptides. Members of the A/B subfamily of carboxypeptidases, such as CPA5, contain an approximately 90-amino acid pro region that assists in the folding of the active Carboxypeptidase domain. Cleavage of the pro region activates the Enzyme (Wei et al., 2002 [PubMed 11836249]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008]
