Gene: [11q14/PRCP] prolylcarboxypeptidase (peptidyl prolylamino acid hydrolase); lysosomal pro-X carboxypeptidase (angiotensinase C);

COM

Wanson-1997 assigned the PCP gene to Chr 11q14 within 700kD of marker D11S901.

FUN

Prolylcarboxypeptidase is a lysosomal enzyme that cleaves COOH-terminal amino acids linked to proline in peptides such as angiotensin II and bradykinin (see GEM:03q27/KNG)."
