Carboxypeptidase A1 encoded by the CPA1 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 or branched aliphatic side chains including Phe, Tyr, Trp, Leu or Ile. It is important in the degradation of food proteins to produce essential amino acids such as Phe and Trp. The deduced amino acid sequence of mouse CPA1 consists of a signal peptide (residues 1 to 16), a pro region (residue 17 to 110), and a mature chain (residues 111 to 419). The purified recombinant CPA1 corresponds to the pro form, which can be activated and assayed.

Detection of Carboxypeptidase A1/CPA1 by Western Blot
Rab27A deficiency caused increased expression of Rab27B, but did not affect its activity.(A and B) Examples of total lysates of isolated pancreatic acinar cells from wild-type C3H/HeSnJ or ashen mice were analyzed by western blot. Each lane represents samples from one mouse. (B) Densitometry analysis on the western blot results from all samples run as in (A). The results are mean ± SE from five mice of each genotype. *P < 0.05. (C) Active form of Rab27B and Rab3D at basal level in isolated acini was examined by GST-SHD and GST-Rim pulldown, respectively. Pulldown fractions were analyzed by western blot. This experiment was repeated three times with similar results. (D) The expression of major digestive enzymes (amylase, chymotrypsin, lipase, and elastase) and other Rab proteins (Rab6 and Rab11) was also not changed in western blots on lysates from isolated ashen mouse acinar cells. (E) The expression of major digestive enzymes (amylase, chymotrypsin, elastase, carboxypeptidase A and ribonuclease A) was also not changed in western blots of purified ashen mouse zymogen granules.
