Target Details for PSMA

Target: PSMA (FOLH1) (Folate Hydrolase (Prostate-Specific Membrane Antigen) 1 (FOLH1))

Alternative Name: PSMA / FOLH1

Background: Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) is a 100-120 kDa type II transmembrane glycoprotein that is a glutamate-preferring carboxy-peptidase. Three functionally distinct proteins are encoded, including folylpoly-gamma-glutamate carboxypeptidase in the intestine, N-acetylated alpha-linked acidic dipeptidase 1 in the brain, and prostate-specific membrane antigen in the prostate. PSMA is highly expressed in prostate secretory-acinar epithelium, in some benign extraprostatic epithelial cells from breast, duodenum, and kidney tissues, and in prostate cancer.Synonyms: FOLH, Folate hydrolase 1, Folylpoly-gamma-glutamate carboxypeptidase, GCP2, Glutamate carboxypeptidase 2, Glutamate carboxypeptidase II, Membrane glutamate carboxypeptidase, N-acetylated-alpha-linked acidic dipeptidase I, NAALAD1, NAALAdase, PSM, Prostate-specific membrane antigen, Pteroylpoly-gamma-glutamate carboxypeptidase
