EXPRESSION
ORGANISM
UNIPROT
LITERATURE
CPA4 is upregulated by histone deacetylase inhibitors during differentiation of prostate epithelial cancer cells
-
expression increases several fold after blood feeding
-
expression is up-regulated by a blood meal in the midgut of female mosquitoes
-
gene expression is significantly elevated in Plasmodium berghei-infected mosquitoes compared to uninfected blood-fed controls
MC-CPA gene expression is about 2fold upregulated by bacterial lipopolysaccharide
-
TH2-high asthma cells are characterized by expression of CPA3
-
the 5'-upstream region of the carboxypeptidase gene is used to establish the Aedes aegypti CP-Gal4 driver line. The CPGal4 driver activates a UAS-EGFP responder in midguts of CPGal4-UAS-EGFP females in a blood meal dependent manner. Transgene expression is regulated by insulin and amino acid/TOR pathways
-
the expression of CPA can be up-regulated by 20-hydroxyecdysone. In the integument, the transcription level of the gene reaches its peak at the 5th instar molting stage and the 6th instar prepupal stage, respectively
