Function | Serine protease that cleaves extracellular substrates, and contributes to the proteolytic processing of growth factors, such as HGF and MST1/HGFL (PubMed:21875933, PubMed:15839837). Plays a role in cell growth and maintenance of cell morphology (PubMed:8346233, PubMed:21875933). Plays a role in the proteolytic processing of ACE2 (PubMed:24227843). Mediates the proteolytic cleavage of urinary UMOD that is required for UMOD polymerization (PubMed:26673890). |
Cellular Location | Cell membrane; Single-pass type II membrane protein Apical cell membrane; Single-pass type II membrane protein |
Tissue Location | Detected in liver and kidney. |

Background
HPN(Hepsin), also known as TMPRSS1, is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the HPN gene. Tsuji et al.(1991) mapped the hepsin gene to 19q11-q13.2. Using cDNA microarrays, Dhanasekaran et al.(2001) examined gene expression profiles of more than 50 normal and neoplastic prostate specimens and 3 common prostate cancer cell lines. Signature expression profiles of normal adjacent prostate, benign prostatic hypertrophy, localized prostate cancer, and metastatic, hormone-refractory prostate cancer were determined. In 3 different human cell lines, Guipponi et al.(2008) found that TMPRSS1 was stably anchored in the endoplasmic reticulum.
