Background
CD26 [also known as dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP IV), adenosine deaminase (ADA) binding protein] is an atypical serine protease belonging to the prolyl oligopeptidase family. It is expressed on lymphocyte cells and is upregulated during T cell activation. CD26 is also expressed on activated B cells and natural killer cells and abundantly on epithelia. CD26 is implicated in a variety of biological functions including T cell activation, cell adhesion with extracellular matrix such as fibronectin or collagens, and in HIV infection.Synonyms: ADABP, ADCP2, Adenosine deaminase complexing protein 2, DPP IV, Dipeptidyl peptidase 4, Dipeptidyl peptidase IV, T-cell activation antigen CD26, TP103
