The secretory proprotein convertase neural apoptosis-regulated convertase 1 (NARC-1): liver regeneration and neuronal differentiation.
Seven secretory mammalian kexin-like subtilases have been identified that cleave a variety of precursor proteins at monobasic and dibasic residues. The recently characterized pyrolysin-like subtilase SKI-1 cleaves proproteins at nonbasic residues. In this work we describe the properties of a proteinase K-like subtilase, neural apoptosis-regulated convertase 1 (NARC-1), representing the ninth me...
متن کاملHysteretic Behavior of Proprotein Convertase 1/3 (PC1/3)
The proprotein convertases (PCs) are calcium-dependent proteases responsible for processing precursor proteins into their active forms in eukariotes. The PC1/3 is a pivotal enzyme of this family that participates in the proteolytic maturation of prohormones and neuropeptides inside the regulated secretory pathway. In this paper we demonstrate that mouse proprotein convertase 1/3 (mPC1/3) has a ...
متن کاملHow does mutant proprotein convertase neural apoptosis-regulated convertase 1 induce autosomal dominant hypercholesterolemia?
In the secretory pathway of the cell, many biologically inactive precursor proteins are processed by limited proteolysis to produce biologically active peptides and proteins. The enzymes that perform these cleavages are referred to as subtilisin-like proprotein convertases (SPCs).1 Seven members of the SPC family are known. One, the subtilisin kexin isoenzyme-1/site-1-protease (SKI-1/S1P), has ...
متن کاملSubtilisin-related Proprotein Convertase Endoproteolytic Site*
The human thyrotropin receptor (TSHR) undergoes proteolytic cleavage closely upstream to amino acid 317. Between residues 261 and 313 are three clusters of positively charged amino acids, arginines (Arg) and lysines (Lys), which are potential subtilisin-related proprotein convertase sites. We used oligonucleotide-directed mutagenesis to perform conservative amino acid substitutions within these...
متن کاملPrediction of proprotein convertase cleavage sites.
Many secretory proteins and peptides are synthesized as inactive precursors that in addition to signal peptide cleavage undergo post-translational processing to become biologically active polypeptides. Precursors are usually cleaved at sites composed of single or paired basic amino acid residues by members of the subtilisin/kexin-like proprotein convertase (PC) family. In mammals, seven members...
