Also known as TapsSASPaseFLJ25084
Summary
ASPRV1 (aspartic peptidase retroviral like 1, HGNC:26321) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 2p13.3, encoding Retroviral-like aspartic protease 1 (Q53RT3). Protease responsible for filaggrin processing, essential for the maintenance of a proper epidermis organization.
Filaggrin is a structural protein that is crucial for in the development and maintenance of the skin barrier. This gene encodes a retroviral-like protease involved in profilaggrin-to-filaggrin processing. Expression is found primarily in the epidermis and inner root sheath of hair follicles.

All UniProt accessions (1): Q53RT3
UniProt curated annotations — full annotation on UniProt →
Function. Protease responsible for filaggrin processing, essential for the maintenance of a proper epidermis organization.
Subunit / interactions. Homodimer.
Subcellular location. Membrane.
Tissue specificity. Expressed primarily in the granular layer of the epidermis and inner root sheath of hair follicles. In psoriatic skin, expressed throughout the stratum corneum. In ulcerated skin, expressed in the stratum granulosum of intact epidermis but almost absent from ulcerated regions. Expressed in differentiated areas of squamous cell carcinomas but not in undifferentiated tumors.
Post-translational modifications. Undergoes autocleavage which is necessary for activation of the protein.
Disease relevance. Ichthyosis, lamellar, autosomal dominant (ADLI) [MIM:146750] An autosomal dominant form of ichthyosis, a disorder of keratinization with abnormal differentiation and desquamation of the epidermis, resulting in abnormal skin scaling. ADLI is characterized by onset at birth or within the first months of life, skin scaling on the entire body with relative sparing of face, anterior chest, and abdomen, and palmoplantar keratoderma. Patients may manifest mild erythema and moderate pruritus. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
