Alpha FAP

• Description:

  FAP is a 760 amino acid long type II transmembrane glycoprotein. It contains a very short cytoplasmic N terminal part (6 amino acids), a transmembrane region (amino acids 7–26), and a large extracellular part with an alpha/beta-hydrolase domain and an eight-bladed beta-propeller domain.[9][10] A soluble form of FAP, which lacks the intracellular and transmembrane part, is present in blood plasma.[11] FAP is a non-classical serine protease, which belongs to the S9B prolyl oligopeptidase subfamily. Other members of the S9B subfamily are DPPIV, DPP8 and DPP9.[12] FAP is most closely related to DPPIV (approximately 50% of their amino acids are identical) . The active site of FAP is localized in the extracellular part of the protein and contains a catalytic triad composed of Ser624 Asp702 His734 in humans and mice.[10] FAP is catalytically active as a 170kD homodimer and has a dipeptidase and an endopeptidase activity.
