Background
Carboxypeptidase A (CPA) is a well-studied enzyme in rats, with significant implications in various biological processes.A novel rat carboxypeptidase, CPA2, was identified from the predicted amino acid sequence of a rat pancreatic cDNA clone. Evolutionary trees built from the amino acid sequences of known pancreatic carboxypeptidases show that CPA2 and carboxypeptidase A1 (CPA1) are products of genes that duplicated before themammalian radiation. Carboxypeptidases have been implicated in various diseases.
