| Gene Symbol | Cpa3 |
| Entrez Gene ID | 12873 |
| Full Name | carboxypeptidase A3, mast cell |
| Synonyms | MC-CPA |
| General protein information |
|
| Gene Type | protein-coding |
| Organism | Mus musculus(house mouse) |
| Genome | |
| Summary | This gene encodes a member of the carboxypeptidase A family of zinc metalloproteases and preproprotein that is proteolytically processed to generate a mature protein product. This product is released by mast cells and may be involved in the degradation of endogenous proteins and the inactivation of venom-associated peptides. Homozygous knockout mice for this gene exhibit impaired mast cell development. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2015]. |
