About CPA6

Cytogenetic location: 8q13.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 8:67,422,038-67,746,360 (from NCBI)

This gene has 6 transcripts (splice variants), 226 orthologues, 8 paralogues and is associated with 4 phenotypes. Biased expression in prostate (RPKM 1.2), colon (RPKM 0.8) and 7 other tissues.

Summary

The gene encodes a member of the peptidase M14 family of metallocarboxypeptidases. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate the mature Enzyme, which catalyzes the release of large hydrophobic C-terminal Amino acids. This Enzyme has functions ranging from digestion of food to selective biosynthesis of neuroendocrine Peptides. Mutations in this gene may be linked to epilepsy and febrile seizures, and a translocation t(6;8)(q26;q13) involving this gene has been associated with Duane retraction syndrome.
