About Cela2a

Summary

This gene encodes a serine Protease enzyme that hydrolyzes elastin. This gene is highly expressed in the pancreatic acinar cells where the encoded preproprotein undergoes processing including signal peptide cleavage to generate an inactive zymogen. The removal of N-terminal activation peptide from the zymogen by trypsin generates active Elastase enzyme. This gene is also expressed in the mouse epidermis where it participates in pro-filaggrin processing. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2016]
