  Domain Name: CRD_Carboxypeptidase
Cysteine-rich domain of carboxypeptidase Z, a member of the carboxypeptidase E family. The cysteine-rich-domain (CRD) is an essential part of carboxypeptidase Z, a member of the carboxypeptidase E family of metallocarboxypeptidases. This is a group of Zn-dependent enzymes implicated in the intra- and extracellular processing of proteins. Carboxypeptidase Z removes C-terminal basic amino acid residues from its substrates, particularly arginine. The CRD acts as a ligand-binding domain for Wnts involved in developmental processes. CPZ binds and may process Wnt-4, CPZ has also been found to enhance the induction of the homeobox gene Cdx1. During vertebrate embryogenesis, the CRD of CPZ upregulates Pax3, a Wnt reporter gene essential for patterning of somites and limb development.
No pairwise interactions are available for this conserved domain.

Tips:
 If you've navigated here from a protein, hovering over a position on the weblogo will display the corresponding protein position for that domain position.

 The histograms below the weblogo indicate mutations found on the domain. Red is for disease (OMIM) and blue is for SNPs.

 Functional Features are displayed as orange boxes under the histograms. You can choose which features are displayed in the box below.
