Background
FAP (also known as seprase) is a Type II transmembrane serine protease that is structurally related to dipeptidyl peptidase IV (1). FAP has substrate specificity similar to dipeptidyl peptidase IV, which is specific for N-terminal Xaa-Pro sequences, but FAP is also an endopeptidase able to degrade gelatin and Type I collagen (2). The enzymatically active form of FAP is a dimer (3). FAP has a restricted tissue distribution. It is not detectable in normal tissues or resting fibroblasts, but is highly expressed on reactive stromal fibroblasts in epithelial cancers (4), in granulation tissue during wound healing, and in bone and soft tissue sarcomas (5). Because of its expression patterns and enzymatic activities, FAP is believed to play roles in tumor invasion, tissue remodeling, and wound repair.
