High impact information on THOP1

Cloning, amino acid sequence and tissue distribution of porcine thimet oligopeptidase. A comparison with soluble angiotensin-binding protein [1].
RNase-protection assays, using RNA preparations from various porcine tissues, indicated that thimet oligopeptidase mRNA is ubiquitously expressed whereas sABP mRNA is predominantly expressed in the liver, kidney and adrenal gland [1].
In addition, BooKase was partially inhibited by cFP-AAF-pAB, a specific inhibitor of thimet oligopeptidase [2].
