Background: Thimet Oligopeptidase/THOP1
Thimet Oligopeptidase/THOP1, also known as endopeptidase EC 3.4.24.15 (EP24.15), is a zinc peptidase of the M3 family that also includes neurolysin/EC 3.4.24.16 and mitochondrial intermediate peptidase (1). Widely expressed by mammalian tissues and reported to present in different subcellular locations, THOP1 is primarily a cytoplasmic enzyme. It is capable of hydrolyzing a number of bioactive peptides and peptides released by the proteosome, limiting antigenic presentation by MHC class I molecules (1‑3). THOP1 also interacts with angiotensin II type I receptor and bradykinin B2 receptor (4). The amino acid sequence of human THOP1 is 90% and 86% identical to that of dog/mouse and rat, respectively.
