Descriptor Spanish: Carboxipeptidasa B2
Descriptor carboxipeptidasa B2
Entry term(s) arginina carboxipeptidasa
carboxipeptidasa U
inhibidor de la fibrinolisis activable por la trombina
Scope note: Carboxipeptidasa que elimina la lisina o la arginina C-terminal de péptidos y proteínas. Se libera carboxipeptidasa B2 (CPB2) a la circulación como proenzima que se activa por el complejo TROMBINA-TROMBOMODULINA. La CPB2 activada está implicada en la modulación de una variedad de procesos al desdoblar e inactivar diversas proteínas y péptidos circulantes que son sus substratos que incluyen la FIBRINA, CININAS y ANAFILATOXINAS.

Scope note: A carboxypeptidase that removes C-terminal lysine or arginine from peptides and proteins. Carboxypeptidase B2 (CPB2) is released into the circulation as a proenzyme which is activated by the THROMBIN-THROMBOMODULIN complex. Activated CPB2 is involved in modulating a variety of processes by cleaving and inactivating various circulating proteins and peptides that are its substrates including FIBRIN; KININS; and ANAPHYLATOXINS.
