Also known as: CYH; MCT1; chymase
Summary: This gene encodes a chymotryptic serine proteinase that belongs to the peptidase family S1. It is expressed in mast cells and is thought to function in the degradation of the extracellular matrix, the regulation of submucosal gland secretion, and the generation of vasoactive peptides. In the heart and blood vessels, this protein, rather than angiotensin converting enzyme, is largely responsible for converting angiotensin I to the vasoactive peptide angiotensin II. Alternative splicing results in multiple variants. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2015]

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.

NM_001308083.2 → NP_001295012.1 chymase isoform 2

See identical proteins and their annotated locations for NP_001295012.1

Status: REVIEWED

Description

Transcript Variant: This variant (2) differs in the 5' UTR and lacks an exon in the 5' coding region, which results in use of a downstream start codon compared to variant 1. It encodes isoform 2, which has a shorter N-terminus compared to isoform 1.
