Summary
Enables aspartic-type endopeptidase activity. Involved in adaptation of signaling pathway by response to pheromone involved in conjugation with cellular fusion and peptide catabolic process. Located in extracellular region and fungal-type cell wall. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Alzheimer's disease; familial juvenile hyperuricemic nephropathy; hand, foot and mouth disease; hypertension (multiple); and portal hypertension. Orthologous to human BACE2 (beta-secretase 2) and REN (renin). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
