Carnosine Dipeptidase 1 (CNDP1) belongs to the M20 metalloprotease family. CNDP1 is specifically expressed in the brain; serum and adult nervous central system. It is identified as human carnosinase. CNDP1 contains trinucleotide (CTG) repeat length polymorphism in the coding region and is inhibited by the metal chelator 1;10-o-phenantrolin. In addition; CNDP1 can hydrolyse the beta-Ala|-His dipeptide (carnosine); anserine; Xaa-|-His dipeptides and other dipeptides including homocarnosine. CNDP1 deficiency has been associated with homocarnosinosis disease.
Recombinant Human Carnosine Dipeptidase 1 is produced by our Mammalian expression system and the target gene encoding Pro28-His507 is expressed with a 6His tag at the C-terminus.
