Dipeptidyl peptidase iii; dpp3

DESCRIPTION

DPP3 (EC 3.4.14.4) is one of the dipeptidyl aminopeptidases that remove N-terminal dipeptides from physiologically active peptides such as angiotensin (see 106150) or enkephalin (131330).

CLONING

Fukasawa et al. (1999) isolated a partial DPP3 cDNA clone from a placenta cDNA library, using antibody to the purified protein as probe. By mass spectrometry, Abramic et al. (2000) determined that the molecular mass of full-length DPP3 is 82.5 kD; by SDS-PAGE, the apparent molecular mass is 81.2 kD.

GENE FUNCTION

By mutation and enzyme analysis of the rat recombinant DPP3 protein, Fukasawa et al. (1999) found that DPP3 shows zinc-dependent metalloprotease activity and contains a conserved HELLGH motif with similarity to the zincin HExxH consensus motif. Abramic et al. (2000) noted that whereas the enzymes purified from rat and human erythrocytes show the same molecular mass, pI, and enzyme substrates, they differ significantly in their temperature stability, pH optima, kinetic parameters, and sensitivity to divalent cations, sulfhydryl reagents, and microbial protease inhibitors.

MAPPING

Fukasawa et al. (2000) mapped the DPP3 gene to chromosome 11q12-q13.1 by FISH. ... More on the omim web site
