    Summary
    The protein encoded by this gene is an ATP-dependent metalloprotease that degrades post-cleavage mitochondrial transit peptides. The encoded protein binds zinc and can also degrade amyloid beta A4 protein, suggesting a possible role in Alzheimer's disease. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2016]
    Annotation information
    Note: The official gene symbol PREP (prolyl endopeptidase) on GeneID: 5550 can be confused with the alias for presequence protease (PREP) on GeneID: 10531 whose official symbol is PITRM1 (pitrilysin metallopeptidase 1). [20 Jun 2018]

    RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

    These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

    These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.

      Status: REVIEWED

      Description
      Transcript Variant: This variant (3) differs in the 5' UTR and has multiple coding region differences, compared to variant 1. These differences cause translation initiation at an alternate AUG and results an isoform (3) with a distinct N-terminus, compared to isoform 1. The encoded protein likely does not localize to the mitochondrion.
