Entrez ID 8532
Gene name Carboxypeptidase Z
Gene symbol CPZ
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
-
Chromosome 4
Chromosome location 4p16.1
Summary This gene encodes a member of the metallocarboxypeptidase family. This enzyme displays carboxypeptidase activity towards substrates with basic C-terminal residues. It is most active at neutral pH and is inhibited by active site-directed inhibitors of meta
