{"symbol":"XPNPEP1","synonyms":["APP1","XPNPEP","XPNPEPL1","SAMP","XPNPEPL"],"name":"X-prolyl aminopeptidase (aminopeptidase P) 1, soluble","description":"This gene encodes the cytosolic form of a metalloaminopeptidase that catalyzes the cleavage of the N-terminal amino acid adjacent to a proline residue. The gene product may play a role in degradation and maturation of tachykinins, neuropeptides, and peptide hormones. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, Nov 2009]","ncbiEntrezGeneId":7511,"ncbiEntrezGeneUrl":"http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/7511","proteins":[{"symbol":"XPP1_HUMAN","href":"/api/1.0/protein/XPP1_HUMAN"}],"hgncRootFamilies":[{"name":"Aminopeptidases","href":"/api/1.0/gene_family/Aminopeptidases"}]}
