Abstract excerpt
Carboxypeptidase N (EC 3.4.17.3) regulates the activity of peptides such as kinins and anaphylatoxins. Although deficiency of carboxypeptidase N (MIM 212070) produces a severe allergic syndrome, no human mutations have ever been described. Therefore, using archival genomic DNA from a subject with...
