    Summary
    This gene encodes a member of the peroxidase family of proteins. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate the mature enzyme. Following its secretion from salivary, mammary, and other mucosal glands, this enzyme catalyzes the generation of the antimicrobial substance hypothiocyanous acid. This gene is present in a gene cluster on chromosome 17. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants, at least one of which encodes a preproprotein that is proteolytically processed.

    RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

    These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

    These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.

    1. NM_001160102.2NP_001153574.1  lactoperoxidase isoform 3 preproprotein

      Status: REVIEWED

      Description
      Transcript Variant: This variant (3) lacks two alternate exons in the 5' coding region, compared to variant 1. The resulting isoform (3) lacks an internal segment near the N-terminus, compared to isoform 1. This isoform is thought to be secreted but the sites of proteolytic processing have not been determined.

    RNA

    1. NR_027647.2 RNA Sequence

      Status: REVIEWED

      Description
      Transcript Variant: This variant (2) lacks an alternate exon in the 5' coding region that causes a frameshift, compared to variant 1. This variant is represented as non-coding because the use of the 5'-most translational start codon, as used in variant 1, renders the transcript a candidate for nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD).
