Aminopeptidase P1/XPNPEP1: Lysates

The human XPNPEP1 gene encodes aminopeptidase P1 (APP1), which is also known as X-prolyl aminopeptidase. Aminopeptidase P1 is a member of the M24 family of metalloproteases, which also contains methionine aminopeptidases, X-Pro dipeptidase, aminopeptidase P2, aminopeptidase P homolog, proliferation-associated protein 1, and suppressor of Ty homolog or chromatin-specific transcription elongation factor large subunit. It is a soluble enzyme, in contrast to the GPI-anchored Aminopeptidase P2 encoded by XPNPEP2. Human Aminopeptidase P1 is widely expressed. The amino acid sequence of human Aminopeptidase P1 is 99%, 97%, 95%, 74% and 73% identical to that of canine, bovine, mouse/rat, Xenopus and zebrafish, respectively.
