CELA2A (chymotrypsin like elastase 2A)

Gene

• Entrez ID: 63036
• Gene name: Chymotrypsin like elastase 2A
• Gene symbol: CELA2A
• Synonyms (NCBI Gene): AOMS4, ELA2A, PE-1
• Chromosome: 1
• Chromosome location: 1p36.21
• Summary: Elastases form a subfamily of serine proteases that hydrolyze many proteins in addition to elastin. Humans have six elastase genes which encode the structurally similar proteins elastase 1, 2, 2A, 2B, 3A, and 3B. Like most of the human elastases, elastase
