Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** MATCAP2 is a type II transmembrane protein that exhibits carboxypeptidase activity, cleaving amino acids from the C-terminus of its substrate proteins. This activity is crucial for regulating the function and localization of various proteins, including neurotransmitters, growth factors, and receptors. The gene's expression is restricted to specific neuronal populations, including cardiac endothelial cells, GABAergic cortical interneurons, and dopaminergic neurons. These cells are involved in regulating various physiological processes, including cardiovascular function, motor control, and neurotransmission. **Pathways and Functions:** MATCAP2 is involved in several signaling pathways, including: 1. **Carboxypeptidase activity**: MATCAP2's carboxypeptidase activity is essential for regulating the function and localization of various proteins, including neurotransmitters and growth factors. 2. **Metal ion binding**: MATCAP2's metal ion binding domain is necessary for its enzymatic activity and its interaction with other proteins. 3. **Metallopeptidase activity**: MATCAP2's metallopeptidase activity is involved in the degradation of protein substrates, regulating protein function and localization. 4. **Proteolysis**: MATCAP2's proteolytic activity is essential for regulating the function and localization of various proteins, including neurotransmitters and growth factors. **Clinical Significance:** The dysregulation of MATCAP2 has been implicated in various neurological disorders, including: 1. **Neurodevelopmental disorders**: MATCAP2's involvement in neurodevelopmental processes makes it a potential target for therapies aimed at treating disorders such as autism spectrum disorder and schizophrenia. 2. **Neurodegenerative disorders**: MATCAP2's role in regulating protein function and localization makes it a potential target for therapies aimed at treating disorders such as Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease. 3. **Cardiovascular disorders**: MATCAP2's expression in cardiac endothelial cells makes it a potential target for therapies aimed at treating cardiovascular disorders, such as hypertension and atherosclerosis. In conclusion, MATCAP2 is a critical component of the neuronal proteome, playing a pivotal role in regulating protein function and localization through its carboxypeptidase activity. Its involvement in neurodevelopmental processes and its potential as a therapeutic target make it an area of significant interest for researchers and clinicians. Further studies are necessary to elucidate the gene's role in various neurological and cardiovascular disorders, ultimately leading to the development of novel therapeutic strategies.
