About ENPEP

Cytogenetic location: 4q25 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 4:110,476,155-110,565,285 (from NCBI)

This gene has 5 transcripts (splice variants), 207 orthologues and 11 paralogues. Biased expression in small intestine (RPKM 132.9), kidney (RPKM 71.6) and 5 other tissues.

Summary

The ENPEP gene encodes glutamyl Aminopeptidase, a type II integral membrane protein with an extracellular zinc-binding domain. This protein can upregulate blood pressure by cleaving the N-terminal aspartate from angiotensin II, and can regulate blood vessel formation and enhance tumorigenesis in some tissues. Along with ANPEP and DPP4, ENPEP was found to be a candidate co-receptor for the coronavirus SARS-CoV-2, which causes COVID-19. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2020]
