ID:CBPD_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Carboxypeptidase D; EC=3.4.17.22; AltName: Full=Metallocarboxypeptidase D; AltName: Full=gp180; Flags: Precursor; CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: Releases C-terminal Arg and Lys from polypeptides. COFACTOR: Binds 2 zinc ions per subunit (By similarity). BIOPHYSICOCHEMICAL PROPERTIES: pH dependence: Optimum pH is 6.0-6.5; SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein (Potential). TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Highly expressed in placenta, pancreas and hepatoma cells. Lower levels found in skeletal muscle, heart and colon carcinoma and melanoma cell lines. DOMAIN: There are 3 carboxypeptidase-like domains. Only the first two domains seem to have kept a catalytic activity. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the peptidase M14 family.
