CPO — Carboxypeptidase O
CPO belongs to a gene co-expression module in 1 of 28 SCUBA cell types. Each module groups genes that rise and fall together in that cell type; the genes it shares a module with are its closest co-expression partners there.
CPO's module in each cell type
| Cell type | Module | Shares the module with | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Enterocytes | Brush-border Nutrient Uptake Absorption | AMN, CUBN, DPEP1, G6PC1, NAAA, SLC13A1, TRPM6 | View in SCUBA |

Function
Carboxypeptidase which preferentially cleaves C-terminal acidic residues from peptides and proteins. Can also cleave C-terminal hydrophobic amino acids, with a preference for small residues over large residues
