protein-coding

carboxypeptidase N subunit 1, the group of M14 carboxypeptidases

Gene summary

Carboxypeptidase N is a plasma metallo-protease that cleaves basic amino acids from the C terminal of peptides and proteins. The enzyme is important in the regulation of peptides like kinins and anaphylatoxins, and has also been known as kininase-1 and anaphylatoxin inactivator. This enzyme is a tetramer comprised of two identical regulatory subunits and two identical catalytic subunits; this gene encodes the catalytic subunit. Mutations in this gene can be associated with angioedema or chronic urticaria resulting from carboxypeptidase N deficiency. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Carboxypeptidase N deficiencyAR

Manifestation: Allergy/Immunology/Infectious

Intervention: Allergy/Immunology/Infectious

Rationale: Individuals may have recurrent urticaria and peripheral angioedema, sometimes due to recognized triggers, and awareness may allow preventative measures as well (including avoidance of triggers) as well as prompt and appropriate treatment of episodes

Comments: Heterozygotes may demonstrate milder manifestations

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type

Statistics based on transcript NM_001308.3. Only rare variants are included.

We include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, MANE Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equal to 1. Click a count to filter the variants table below.

Slight differences between displayed counts and ClinVar may occur due to a different transcript/consequence chosen by our variant effect predictor, or because we classify Benign/Likely benign as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic as Likely pathogenic.
