Svensk definition
Cellyteglykoproteiner och serinproteas, även kallat dipeptidylpeptidas IV, som har betydelse för aktivering av T-lymfocyter. CD26 binder till adenosindeaminas på T-cellens yta. EC 3.4.14.5.
Dipeptidyl Peptidase 4
Dipeptidylpeptidas 4
Engelsk definition
A serine protease that catalyses the release of an N-terminal dipeptide. Several biologically-active peptides have been identified as dipeptidyl peptidase 4 substrates including INCRETINS; NEUROPEPTIDES; and CHEMOKINES. The protein is also found bound to ADENOSINE DEAMINASE on the T-CELL surface and is believed to play a role in T-cell activation.
