Abstract

Dipeptidyl Peptidases 8 and 9 Play Roles in Cellular Metabolism and Energy Homeostasis♦: Identifying Natural Substrates for Dipeptidyl Peptidases 8 and 9 Using Terminal Amine Isotopic Labeling of Substrates (TAILS) Reveals in Vivo Roles in Cellular Homeostasis and Energy Metabolism

Highlights

  • Dipeptidyl peptidase (DP) 8 and DP9 are ubiquitous intracellular exopeptidases that are highly conserved and structurally related to the extracellular type II diabetes drug target DP4

  • DP8 and DP9 have been implicated in immune responses and cancer; there are concerns about the possible off-target effects of DP4 inhibitors on these proteases during type II diabetes treatment

  • Overall at the University of British Columbia in Canada demonstrated that DP8 and DP9 are involved in cellular metabolism and energy homeostasis
