Predicted to enable metallocarboxypeptidase activity. Predicted to be involved in proteolysis. Located in collagen and cuticulin-based cuticle extracellular matrix and cytoplasm. Expressed in hypodermis. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in familial febrile seizures 11 and familial temporal lobe epilepsy 5. Is an ortholog of human CPA6 (carboxypeptidase A6).
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.
