| UniProt functional annotation for P08176 | |||
| UniProt code: P08176. |
| Organism: | Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus (European house dust mite). | |
| Taxonomy: | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Ecdysozoa; Arthropoda; Chelicerata; Arachnida; Acari; Acariformes; Sarcoptiformes; Astigmata; Psoroptidia; Analgoidea; Pyroglyphidae; Dermatophagoidinae; Dermatophagoides. | |
| Function: | Thiol protease, with a preference for substrates with a large hydrophobic side chain in the P2 position, or with basic residues. | |
| Catalytic activity: | Reaction=Broad endopeptidase specificity.; EC=3.4.22.65; | |
| Subcellular location: | Secreted. | |
| Ptm: | N-glycosylated. N-glycanase treatment does not completely remove carbohydrates, suggesting that the protein contains additional glycosylation sites. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16148130}. | |
| Allergen: | Causes an allergic reaction in human. Common symptoms of mite allergy are bronchial asthma, allergic rhinitis and conjunctivitis. Binds to IgE in 80% of patients with house dust allergy. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the peptidase C1 family. {ECO:0000255|PROSITE- ProRule:PRU10088, ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU10089, ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU10090}. | |
| Sequence caution: | Sequence=AAA28296.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; Evidence={ECO:0000305}; | |
