OSGEPL1 Gene

O-sialoglycoprotein endopeptidase-like 1

Enables N(6)-L-threonylcarbamoyladenine synthase activity. Involved in tRNA threonylcarbamoyladenosine modification. Is active in mitochondrion. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Mar 2025]

RCE1 Gene

Ras converting CAAX endopeptidase 1

This gene encodes an integral membrane protein which is classified as a member of the metalloproteinase family. This enzyme is thought to function in the maintenance and processing of CAAX-type prenylated proteins. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ASTL Gene

astacin-like metallo-endopeptidase (M12 family)

Predicted to enable aspartic-type peptidase activity; glutamic-type peptidase activity; and metalloendopeptidase activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including negative regulation of binding activity of sperm to zona pellucida; positive regulation of protein processing; and prevention of polyspermy. Predicted to be located in cortical granule and plasma membrane. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Mar 2025]

PREP Gene

prolyl endopeptidase

The protein encoded by this gene is a cytosolic prolyl endopeptidase that cleaves peptide bonds on the C-terminal side of prolyl residues within peptides that are up to approximately 30 amino acids long. Prolyl endopeptidases have been reported to be involved in the maturation and degradation of peptide hormones and neuropeptides. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

PREPL Gene

prolyl endopeptidase-like

The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the prolyl oligopeptidase subfamily of serine peptidases. Mutations in this gene have been associated with hypotonia-cystinuria syndrome, also known as the 2p21 deletion syndrome. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding either the same or different isoforms have been described for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Jan 2010]

KEL Gene

Kell blood group, metallo-endopeptidase

This gene encodes a type II transmembrane glycoprotein that is the highly polymorphic Kell blood group antigen. The Kell glycoprotein links via a single disulfide bond to the XK membrane protein that carries the Kx antigen. The encoded protein contains sequence and structural similarity to members of the neprilysin (M13) family of zinc endopeptidases. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

MME Gene

membrane metallo-endopeptidase

The protein encoded by this gene is a type II transmembrane glycoprotein and a common acute lymphocytic leukemia antigen that is an important cell surface marker in the diagnosis of human acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL). The encoded protein is present on leukemic cells of pre-B phenotype, which represent 85% of cases of ALL. This protein is not restricted to leukemic cells, however, and is found on a variety of normal tissues. The protein is a neutral endopeptidase that cleaves peptides at the amino side of hydrophobic residues and inactivates several peptide hormones including glucagon, enkephalins, substance P, neurotensin, oxytocin, and bradykinin.

MMEL1 Gene

membrane metallo-endopeptidase-like 1

The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the neutral endopeptidase (NEP) or membrane metallo-endopeptidase (MME) family. Family members play important roles in pain perception, arterial pressure regulation, phosphate metabolism and homeostasis. This protein is a type II transmembrane protein and is thought to be expressed as a secreted protein. This gene is expressed mainly in testis with weak expression in the brain, kidney, and heart.

PHEX Gene

phosphate regulating endopeptidase homolog, X-linked

The protein encoded by this gene is a transmembrane endopeptidase that belongs to the type II integral membrane zinc-dependent endopeptidase family. The protein is thought to be involved in bone and dentin mineralization and renal phosphate reabsorption. Mutations in this gene cause X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2013]

PCOLCE2 Gene

procollagen C-endopeptidase enhancer 2

Enables collagen binding activity; heparin binding activity; and peptidase activator activity. Predicted to act upstream of or within cellular response to leukemia inhibitory factor. Predicted to be located in extracellular region. Predicted to be part of collagen trimer. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Mar 2025]

PCOLCE Gene

procollagen C-endopeptidase enhancer

Fibrillar collagen types I-III are synthesized as precursor molecules known as procollagens. These precursors contain amino- and carboxyl-terminal peptide extensions known as N- and C-propeptides, respectively, which are cleaved, upon secretion of procollagen from the cell, to yield the mature triple helical, highly structured fibrils. This gene encodes a glycoprotein which binds and drives the enzymatic cleavage of type I procollagen and heightens C-proteinase activity. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

OSGEP Gene

O-sialoglycoprotein endopeptidase

Enables N(6)-L-threonylcarbamoyladenine synthase activity. Involved in tRNA threonylcarbamoyladenosine modification. Located in cytosol and nucleoplasm. Part of EKC/KEOPS complex. Implicated in Galloway-Mowat syndrome 3. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Mar 2025]
