Carboxypeptidase A2 encoded by the CPA2 gene cleaves the C-terminal amide or ester bond of peptides that have a free C-terminal carboxyl group (1). It prefers the C-terminal residues with aromatic side chains including Phe, Tyr, and Trp. The deduced amino acid sequence of human CPA2 consists of a signal peptide (residues 1 to 16), a pro region (residues 17 to 112), and a mature chain (residues 113 to 417). The purified rhCPA2 corresponds to the pro form, which can be activated and assayed.

Specificity
Detects human CPA2 in direct ELISAs and Western blots. In direct ELISAs and Western blots, approximately 10% cross‑reactivity with recombinant human (rh) CPA1 is observed and less than 1% cross-reactivity with rhCPB1 and recombinant mouse CPA4 is observed.
