LNPEP (also known as PLAP, CAP, IRAP, and Oxytocinase) is a 165-175kD member of the oxytocinase subfamily, M1 family of zinc metallopeptidases.
It is widely expressed after cell stimulation and is found on endothelial cells, trophoblasts, skeletal muscle cells, neurons, adipocytes, and renal distal tubule epithelium.
LNPEP cleaves vasopressin and oxytocin and serves as a receptor for AngIV.
Human LNPEP is a 1025aa type II transmembrane glycoprotein
It contains a 110aa cytoplasmic region (aa1110)plus an 894aa extracellular domain (aa1321025) that contains a peptidase M1 region(aa168552).There are multiple potential splice variants.
There are two alternative start sites at Met15 and Met20, and the cytoplasmic tail undergoes phosphorylation at Tyr70 and Ser80.
LNPEP is reportedly forms homodimers.
Proteolytic cleavage between Phe154Ala155 generates a 150155kD soluble form.
Over (aa 133552), human LNPEP shares 89% aa sequence identity with mouse LNPEP.
