Preparation and Storage

Background: DPP9

DPP9 is a member of the S9b family of serine peptidases (1, 2). It shares 19% amino acid identity with DPP4 and 58% amino acid identity with DPP8. It exhibits post‑proline dipeptidyl aminopeptidase activity, cleaving Xaa-Pro dipeptides from the N-terminus of oligo- and polypeptides (3). Unlike DPP4, DPP9 does not appear to be membrane bound and is localized exclusively in the cytoplasm (4). This family of proline-specific dipeptidyl peptidases has been implicated in a variety of diseases including type 2 diabetes, obesity and cancer, and has been a potential target for drug discovery (5, 6).
