PC-3 cells were subjected to SDS PAGE followed by western blot with FNab01795(CNDP2 antibody) at dilution of 1:200
Background
Hydrolyzes a variety of dipeptides including L-carnosine but has a strong preference for Cys-Gly(PubMed:19346245). Acts as a functional tumor suppressor in gastric cancer via activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase(MAPK) pathway. An elevated level of CNDP2 activates the p38 and JNK MAPK pathways to induce cell apoptosis, and a lower level of CNDP2 activates the ERK MAPK pathway to promote cell proliferation(PubMed:24395568). Isoform 2 may play a role as tumor suppressor in hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC) cells(PubMed:17121880). Catalyzes the production of N-lactoyl-amino acids from lactate and amino acids by reverse proteolysis(PubMed:25964343).
