Also known as TPPII
Summary
TPP2 (tripeptidyl peptidase 2, HGNC:12016) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 13q33.1, encoding Tripeptidyl-peptidase 2 (P29144). Cytosolic tripeptidyl-peptidase that releases N-terminal tripeptides from polypeptides and is a component of the proteolytic cascade acting downstream of the 26S proteasome in the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway.
This gene encodes a mammalian peptidase that, at neutral pH, removes tripeptides from the N terminus of longer peptides. The protein has a specialized function that is essential for some MHC class I antigen presentation. The protein is a high molecular mass serine exopeptidase; the amino acid sequence surrounding the serine residue at the active site is similar to the peptidases of the subtilisin class rather than the trypsin class.

Function. Cytosolic tripeptidyl-peptidase that releases N-terminal tripeptides from polypeptides and is a component of the proteolytic cascade acting downstream of the 26S proteasome in the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. It plays an important role in intracellular amino acid homeostasis. Stimulates adipogenesis.
Subcellular location. Cytoplasm. Nucleus.
Disease relevance. Immunodeficiency 78 with autoimmunity and developmental delay (IMD78) [MIM:619220] An autosomal recessive disorder characterized by immune dysregulation, increased susceptibility to bacterial, viral and fungal infections, recurrent sinopulmonary or skin infections, and autoimmune abnormalities including hemolytic anemia and autoimmune cytopenias. Patients also have global developmental delay with speech delay and variable intellectual disability. Disease onset is in infancy or early childhood. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Miscellaneous. The limitation of proteolytic products to tripeptides is achieved by tailoring the size of the substrate-binding cleft: the two negatively charged residues Glu-305 and Glu-331 that are blocking position P4 limit the number of residues that can be accommodated in the binding cleft and thus create a molecular ruler. At the same time, they orient substrates so that the tripeptides are removed exclusively from the N-terminus.
Similarity. Belongs to the peptidase S8 family.
