Symbol: CPB2 Name: carboxypeptidase B2 (plasma) Entrez gene ID: 1361 Ensembl gene ID: ENSG00000080618 Species: Human (Taxid: 9606) Observation: Genotypes of the CPB2 gene were studied in 2224 men and women aged 65 or older at baseline. During 10 years of follow-up, men with the -438 A/A genotype had decreased mortality due to all causes, and lived, on average, longer than men with the -438 G allele. The effects of -438 G/A in women were smaller and not statistically significant [15939070].CPB2 was found to be associated with longevity [15939070].
