SYNONYMS
Latexin, Endogenous carboxypeptidase inhibitor, ECI, Tissue carboxypeptidase inhibitor, TCI.
INTRODUCTION
Lxn also known as Latexin is a member of the protease inhibitor I47 (latexin) family. Lxn's function is hardly reversible, non-competitive, as well as potent inhibitor of CPA1, CPA2 and CPA4. Furthermore, Lxn plays a role in inflammation. Among the diseases associated with LXN are endocervicitis and listeriosis.
