Target Details for PCSK2

Target: PCSK2 (Proprotein Convertase Subtilisin/kexin Type 2 (PCSK2))

Alternative Name: PCSK2

Background: This gene encodes a member of the subtilisin-like proprotein convertase family. These enzymes process latent precursor proteins into their biologically active products. The encoded protein plays a critical role in hormone biosynthesis by processing a variety of prohormones including proinsulin, proopiomelanocortin and proluteinizing-hormone-releasing hormone. Single nucleotide polymorphisms in this gene may increase susceptibility to myocardial infarction and type 2 diabetes. This gene may also play a role in tumor development and progression. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene. Synonyms: Polyclonal PCSK2 antibody, Anti-PCSK2 antibody, proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 2 antibody, NEC2 antibody, PC2 antibody, SPC2 antibody.
