pcp-1 encodes a predicted prolylcarboxypeptidase (PRCP); by homology, PCP-1 is predicted to function as a lysosomal serine-type peptidase that hydrolyzes proteins containing a penultimate proline residue.
Map position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.
