Background: Carboxypeptidase E/CPE

Encoded by the CPE gene and also known as Carboxypeptidase H, CPE is a single chain peptidase with an optimal pH range between 5.0‑6.0. It is a zinc metallocarboxypeptidase that removes basic amino acids from the C-terminus of peptides (1). Like other metallocarboxypeptidases, its activity is stimulated by millimolar concentrations of Co2+. Its activity is regulated by pH-induced aggregation above pH 6.0. Its major function seems to process numerous peptide hormones and neurotransmitters. In addition to its proteolytic function, it also plays a role as a sorting receptor (2), which may be attributed to the sorting of this protein into the secretory pathway. The C-terminal domain of CPE causes the peripheral association of CPE with membranes below neutral pH, resulting in the association of this protein into membranes (3). CPE knockout mice live but become obese due to impaired glucose clearance and insulin resistance (4).
