ELANE

Gene
ELANE
Protein
Neutrophil elastase
Organism
Homo sapiens
Length
267 amino acids
Function
Modifies the functions of natural killer cells, monocytes and granulocytes. Inhibits C5a-dependent neutrophil enzyme release and chemotaxis (PubMed:15140022). Capable of killing E.coli but not S.aureus in vitro; digests outer membrane protein A (ompA) in E.coli and K.pneumoniae (PubMed:10947984).
Similarity
Belongs to the peptidase S1 family. Elastase subfamily.
