PAPPA2

Gene Information
Function Summary
  • Entrez Summary: This gene encodes a member of the pappalysin family of metzincin metalloproteinases. The encoded protein cleaves insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 5 and is thought to be a local regulator of insulin-like growth factor (IGF) bioavailability. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2010].
  • UniProt Summary: Metalloproteinase which specifically cleaves insulin- like growth factor binding protein (IGFBP)-5 at the '163-Ser-|- Lys-164' bond. Shows limited proteolysis toward IGFBP-3. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11264294}.
