  • Description
    CNDP1, also known as carnosine dipeptidase 1, glutamate carboxypeptidase-like protein 2 (CPGL-2) or carnosinase 1 (CN1), is a member of the M20 metalloprotease family. The CNDP1 gene contains trinucleotide (CTG) repeat length polymorphism in the coding region, which has been demonstrated to be associated with susceptibility to developing diabetic nephropathy, for carnosine protection against the adverse effects of high glucose levels on renal cells. In humans, CNDP1 is secreted from the liver into the serum. In other mammals, including rodents, CNDP1 is expressed exclusively within the kidney and lacks a signal peptide. CNDP1 protein is a secreted homodimeric dipeptidase that specifically hydrolyzes L-carnosine (β-alanyl-L-histidine), and is identified as human carnosinase expressed in the brain. CNDP1 has been associated with diabetic nephropathy in Europeans and European Americans, but not African-Americans. It was identified and confirmed as a risk factor, were cross-sectional and mostly in patients with type 2 diabetes. The polymorphisms of CNDP1 can be excluded as a risk factor for nephropathy in type 1 diabetes. In addition, CNDP1 is also suggested to be implicated in the actions of neuroprotection and neurotransmiting.

  • Gene Name
    Cndp1; Cn1
  • Source/Expression Host
    Human Cells
  • Expression Plasmid/cDNA
    A DNA sequence encoding the mouse CNDP1 (Q8BUG2) (Met 1-Tyr 492) was expressed, with an N-terminal signal peptide and a C-terminal polyhistidine tag.
  • Protein Species
    Mouse
  • Molecular weight
    The secreted recombinant mouse CNDP1 comprises 503 amino acids and has a calculated molecular mass of 56.5 kDa. As a result of glycosylation, the apparent molecular mass of the recombinant protein is approximately 55 kDa in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions.
  • Purity
    > 93 % as determined by SDS-PAGE
  • Activity
    Measured by its ability to cleave carnosine (ß-Ala-L-His)in a two step assay.
    The specific activity is > 250 pmoles/min/μg.
