Human Endothelin Converting Enzyme 2 (ECE2) interaction partners

1. this is the first report of ECE-2 being an autoantigen in humans. We have identified ECE-2 as a specific autoantigen in APS1 with a restricted neuroendocrine distribution.

2. ECE-2 and ECE-1 (show ECE1 Proteins) levels are significantly reduced in post-mortem brain from dementia with Lewy body patients.

3. Te results of this study suggested taht genetic variations in MMEL1 (show MMEL1 Proteins), ECE1 (show ECE1 Proteins), ECE2, AGER (show AGER Proteins), PLG (show PLG Proteins), PLAT (show PLAT Proteins), NR1H3 (show NR1H3 Proteins), MMP3 (show MMP3 Proteins), LRP1 (show LRP1 Proteins), TTR (show TTR Proteins), NR1H2 (show NR1H2 Proteins), and MMP9 (show MMP9 Proteins) genes do not play major role among the Finnish AD patient cohort.

4. The PL405 assay is thus the first tool to study ECE-2 inhibition using high throughput screening or for ex vivo ECE-2 quantification.

5. Data show that CD133 and ECE (show ECE1 Proteins) expressions are associated with lymphoid metastasis and prognosis of NSCLC, and their overexpression often suggests unfavorable prognosis of NSCLC.

6. The most significantly downregulated gene in this data set was the endothelin converting enzyme 2 (ECE2), implicated in amyloid beta clearance.

7. An intact SAM-dependent methyltransferase fold is encoded by the human endothelin-converting enzyme-2 gene

8. Abeta (show APP Proteins) accumulation in Alzheimer's disease is unlikely to be caused by ECE-2 deficiency. However, ECE-2 expression is up-regulated

Mouse (Murine) Endothelin Converting Enzyme 2 (ECE2) interaction partners

1. These results suggest that ECE2, by selectively processing endogenous opioid peptides in the endocytic compartment, plays a role in modulating opioid receptor activity

2. a role for differential modulation of opioid receptor signaling by post-endocytic processing of peptide agonists by ECE2.

3. ECE-2 has a role in the non-classical processing of spinal cord peptides and morphine responses, including the cleavage of a number of neuropeptides at non-classical sites in vitro.

4. deficits in learning and memory in ECE2 knockout mice may provide unique insights into processes that may contribute to this disease and possible other disorders of cognition

5. The PL405 assay is thus the first tool to study ECE-2 inhibition using high throughput screening or for ex vivo ECE-2 quantification.

6. novel four subisoforms of ECE-2 that differ in their N-terminal cytoplasmic tails

7. ECE2 has a role in limiting Abeta (show APP Proteins) accumulation in the mouse brain

Cow (Bovine) Endothelin Converting Enzyme 2 (ECE2) interaction partners

1. Data suggest that, in Fallopian tubes, endothelins (EDN1 (show EDN1 Proteins), EDN2 (show EDN2 Proteins), EDN3 (show EDN3 Proteins)) and EDN (show RNASE2 Proteins)-converting enzymes (ECE1 (show ECE1 Proteins), ECE2) are expressed in epithelial cells; EDN (show RNASE2 Proteins) receptors (EDNRA (show EDNRA Proteins), EDNRB (show EDNRB Proteins)) are present in smooth-muscle. Expression of EDN1 (show EDN1 Proteins), EDN2 (show EDN2 Proteins), and ECE2 is highest on day of ovulation. EDN (show RNASE2 Proteins)/ENDR signaling appears to participate Fallopian tube function. These studies were conducted in Holstein cows.
