Target Details for CPB2

Target: CPB2 (Carboxypeptidase B2 (Plasma) (CPB2))

Alternative Name: CPB2

Background:

Synonyms: Carboxypeptidase B2,3.4.17.20 ,Carboxypeptidase U,CPU,Plasma carboxypeptidase B,pCPB,Thrombin-activable fibrinolysis inhibitor,TAFI,CPB2,

Tissue Specificity: Plasma, synthesized in the liver.

Background: Carboxypeptidase B2 (CPB2), also known as carboxypeptidase U (CPU), plasma carboxypeptidase B (pCPB) or thrombin-activatable fibrinolysis inhibitor (TAFI), is an enzyme that, in humans, is encoded by the gene CPB2. CPB2 is synthesized by the liver and circulates in the plasma as a plasminogen-bound zymogen. When it is activated by proteolysis at residue Arg92 by the thrombin/thrombomodulin complex, CPB2 exhibits carboxypeptidase activity. Activated CPB2 reduces fibrinolysis by removing the fibrin C-terminal residues that are important for the binding and activation of plasminogen.
