Summary: This gene encodes a member of the peptidase A1 family of aspartic proteases. The encoded preproprotein undergoes proteolytic processing to generate an active endopeptidase enzyme. This transmembrane protease catalyzes the proteolysis of amyloid precursor protein to produce amyloid beta peptide. Mice lacking the encoded product exhibit increased pancreatic beta cell mass and improved glucose tolerance due to increased insulin secretion. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2016]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
