Gene: CPVL

Alternate names for this Gene: HVLP

Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is a carboxypeptidase and bears strong sequence similarity to serine carboxypeptidases. Carboxypeptidases are a large class of proteases that act to cleave a single amino acid from the carboxy termini of proteins or peptides. The exact function of this protein, however, has not been determined.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 7

Location in Chromosome : 7p14.3

Description of this Gene: carboxypeptidase vitellogenic like

Type of Gene: protein-coding
