Background: ANPESCI gene encodes aminopESCItidase N (APN) also known as microsomal aminopESCItiase, alanyl aminopESCItidase, aminopESCItidase M, CD13, or membrane protein p161, is a member of the pESCItidase M1 family. Widely expressed in many cells, tissues and species, APN cleaves the N-terminal amino acids from bioactive pESCItides, leading to their inactivation or degradation. Probably plays a role in regulating growth and differentiation of early B-lineage cells. It also may play a role in the catabolic pathway of the renin-angiotensin system. It degrades vasoconstricting angiotensin II into angiotensin III and therefore helps to regulate blood pressure.
