Gene nameCPA6
Protein nameCarboxypeptidase A6 (EC 3.4.17.-)
SynonymsCPAH
DescriptionFUNCTION: May be involved in the proteolytic inactivation of enkephalins and neurotensin in some brain areas. May convert inactive angiotensin I into the biologically active angiotensin II . Releases a C-terminal amino acid, with preference for large hydrophobic C-terminal amino acids and shows only very weak activity toward small amino acids and histidine . .
