Schneider 2 cell line, each splice variant of enzyme occurs in this cell line. Short enzyme forms containing a single carboxypeptidase domain are secreted from S2 cells, while long forms containing three carboxypeptidase domains, a transmembrane domain, and one out of two cytosolic domains are retained. C-terminal tail 2 leads to Golgi localization. The two C-terminal tails result in different internalization efficiencies from the cell surface

physiological function
CpD is the only endogenous carboxypeptidase that cleaves antibody heavy chain C-terminal lysine in CHO cells. Knockdown of CpD by RNAi increases C-terminal lysine levels of antibodies, whereas there is no obvious change in C-terminal lysine levels when carboxypeptidase CpM, CpN, CpB, or CpE is knocked downIn a CpD knockout mutant, C-terminal lysine cleavage is completely abolished

cells infected with the mutant enzyme show considerable carboxypeptidase activity, mutation eliminates the activity of domain 1

-

additional information
-
enzyme is encoded by silver gene svr. Mutant lines svrPG33 do not survive past the early larval stage, having a P-element insertion upstream of the initiation ATG. Mutant lines svr1 and svrpoi are viable, with silvery body color and poited wings. svr1 gene has a three-nucleotide deletion in exon 6, svrpoi has a 1072-bp duplication of the gene that introduces a stop codon into the open reading frame. Both mutations eliminate enzyme activity of the second carboxypeptidase-like domain, which reduces levels of the long forms of enzyme but does not affect the levels of the short forms
additional information
-
lack of the Kex1 protease results in fusion defects during yeast mating
additional information
-
studies of dependence of Saccharomyces cerevisiae K2 preprotoxin killing and immunity properties modulated by the action of Kex1p and Kex2p enzymes show that the lack of Kex1p carboxypeptidase 10times decreases toxin activity, and the deficiency of Kex2p endopeptidase completely removes killing ability
