Source: Human Cells. MW :47.3kD. Recombinant Human Carboxypeptidase M is produced by our Mammalian expression system and the target gene encoding Leu18-His422 is expressed with a 6His tag at the C-terminus. These enzymes remove C-terminal amino acids from peptides and proteins and exert roles in the physiological processes of blood coagulation/fibrinolysis, inflammation, food digestion and pro-hormone and neuropeptide processing. CPM is widely distributed in a variety of tissues and cells. CPM is involved in peptide metabolism on both the cell surface and in extracellular fluids. CPM functions not only as a protease but also as a binding partner in cell-surface protein-protein interactions.
