Background

CD13, also known as aminopeptidase N or membrane alanyl aminopeptidase, is a type II membrane 150kDa metalloprotease with an extracellular oriented catalytic domain. It is a seahorse-shaped molecule and usually forms a head-to-head homodimer by means of hydrophobic interactions. Each monomeric molecule of CD13 possesses a 7-domain organization, which is characteristic of M1 metallopeptidases. CD13 has been termed a “moonlighting enzyme” because of its multiple functions.
