Abstract excerpt
Inborn mutations in the digestive protease carboxypeptidase A1 (CPA1) gene may be associated with hereditary and idiopathic chronic pancreatitis (CP). Pathogenic mutations, such as p.N256K, cause intracellular retention and reduced secretion of CPA1, accompanied by endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, suggesting that mutation-induced misfolding underlies the phenotype. Here, we report the novel p.G250A CPA1...
