Dipeptidyl peptidase 8 also known as DPP8 is a serine protease enzyme that cleaves x-proline dipeptides from the N-termini of peptides. It has a molecular mass of around 88 kDa and shares structural similarities with DPP4. DPP8 is expressed in various tissues including the brain liver and skin but shows a notably high expression in immune cells. The enzyme is involved in regulating various physiological processes depending on its tissue distribution.
Biological function summary

DPP8 seems to play roles in modulating immune responses and cell proliferation. It functions independently and is not typically part of a larger protein complex. Studies suggest a connection between DPP8 and cellular processes such as apoptosis and inflammation although the exact biological roles require more detailed investigation.

Pathways

The peptidase activity of DPP8 integrates within metabolic and immune system pathways. In the context of metabolism it relates closely to proteins like DPP4 which influences glucose homeostasis. In immune pathways DPP8 regulates the processing of peptides affecting immune cell communication and activity sharing roles with other immune-related proteases.

DPP8 exhibits connections with inflammatory and metabolic conditions. For example its dysregulation may relate to inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) possibly affecting inflammatory cytokine release. DPP8's function parallels with DPP4 linking it indirectly to disorders like type 2 diabetes where DPP4 inhibitors are a therapeutic angle. Further exploration of DPP8's roles could indicate potential as a therapeutic target in these conditions.

General info

Function

Dipeptidyl peptidase that cleaves off N-terminal dipeptides from proteins having a Pro or Ala residue at position 2 (PubMed : 11012666, PubMed : 12534281, PubMed : 12662155, PubMed : 15039077, PubMed : 15664838, PubMed : 20536396, PubMed : 29382749). Acts as a key inhibitor of caspase-1-dependent monocyte and macrophage pyroptosis in resting cells by preventing activation of NLRP1 and CARD8 (PubMed : 27820798, PubMed : 29967349, PubMed : 32796818). Sequesters the cleaved C-terminal part of NLRP1 and CARD8, which respectively constitute the active part of the NLRP1 and CARD8 inflammasomes, in a ternary complex, thereby preventing their oligomerization and activation (PubMed : 33731929, PubMed : 33731932, PubMed : 34019797). The dipeptidyl peptidase activity is required to suppress NLRP1 and CARD8; however, neither NLRP1 nor CARD8 are bona fide substrates of DPP8, suggesting the existence of substrate(s) required for NLRP1 and CARD8 inhibition (By similarity).

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the peptidase S9B family. DPPIV subfamily.
