Human Xaa-Pro aminopeptidase 1 (XPNPEP1) ELISA Kit
Overview: X-prolyl aminopeptidase is a proline-specific metalloaminopeptidase that specifically catalyzes the removal of any unsubstituted N-terminal amino acid that is adjacent to a penultimate proline residue. Because of its specificity toward proline, it has been suggested that X-prolyl aminopeptidase is important in the maturation and degradation of peptide hormones, neuropeptides, and tachykinins, as well as in the digestion of otherwise resistant dietary protein fragments, thereby complementing the pancreatic peptidases.
XPNPEPL, that encodes a 623-amino acid protein exhibiting 44% sequence identity and 62% sequence similarity to pig kidney X-prolyl aminopeptidase and high sequence homology to proteins in S. pombe and S. cerevisiae.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes the cytosolic form of a metalloaminopeptidase that catalyzes the cleavage of the N-terminal amino acid adjacent to a proline residue. The gene product may play a role in degradation and maturation of tachykinins, neuropeptides, and peptide hormones. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, Nov 2009]
Uniprot Description
Contributes to the degradation of bradykinin. Catalyzes the removal of a penultimate prolyl residue from the N-termini of peptides, such as Arg-Pro-Pro.

Product Notes
The Human XPNPEP1 xpnpep1 (Catalog #AAA286639) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA286639 ELISA Kit recognizes Human XPNPEP1. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Xaa-Pro aminopeptidase 1 (XPNPEP1), ELISA Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
