PEPTIDASE B; PEPB


HGNC Approved Gene Symbol: PEPB

Cytogenetic location: 12q21     Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 12:71,100,001-92,200,000


TEXT

Cloning and Expression

Lewis et al. (1968) identified genetically variable peptidases determined by alleles at 2 separate and not closely linked structural loci, PEPA (169800) and PEPB (EC 3.4.11.4). The peptidases were present in red cells.


Mapping

The peptidase B locus is linked to the LDHB (150100) locus (Ruddle et al., 1970) on chromosome 12 (Chen et al., 1973). Law and Kao (1978) summarized data suggesting the order 12pter--TPI (190450)--GAPD (138400)--SHMT (SHMT2; 138450). SHMT lies on the proximal part of 12q between the centromere and PEPB. Law and Kao (1979) further localized PEPB to 12q21.

Mouse Pep2, the homolog of human PEPB, is on chromosome 10 (Womack et al., 1986). Womack et al. (1986) found that Apk, an acid phosphatase locus expressed in mouse kidney, is also located on chromosome 10 and is linked to Pep2.


Gene Function

Lewis et al. (1968) showed that PEPA and PEPB were capable of hydrolyzing di- and tripeptides.


Molecular Genetics

Data on gene frequencies of allelic variants were tabulated by Roychoudhury and Nei (1988).
