    Also known as
    INSULYSIN
    Summary
    This gene encodes a zinc metallopeptidase that degrades intracellular insulin, and thereby terminates insulins activity, as well as participating in intercellular peptide signalling by degrading diverse peptides such as glucagon, amylin, bradykinin, and kallidin. The preferential affinity of this enzyme for insulin results in insulin-mediated inhibition of the degradation of other peptides such as beta-amyloid. Deficiencies in this protein's function are associated with Alzheimer's disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus but mutations in this gene have not been shown to be causitive for these diseases. This protein localizes primarily to the cytoplasm but in some cell types localizes to the extracellular space, cell membrane, peroxisome, and mitochondrion. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms. Additional transcript variants have been described but have not been experimentally verified.[provided by RefSeq, Sep 2009]

    RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

    These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

    These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.

      Status: REVIEWED

      Description
      Transcript Variant: This variant (2) lacks multiple exons that are present in the 5' end of variant 1. Variant 2 contains a novel exon at its 5' end and begins translation from a downstream in-frame start codon, compared to variant 1. The encoded protein (isoform 2) lacks 555 amino acids from the N-terminus of isoform 1 but is identical to its C-terminal 464 amino acids. Compared to isoform 1, isoform 2 lacks two of three M16 peptidase domains and the N-terminal catalytic domain. The C-terminus of isoform 2 retains the oligomerization domain and peroxisomal targeting sequence present in isoform 1.
