The secreted form of mouse meprin A is a homooligomer of meprin alpha subunits that contain a prosequence, a catalytic domain, and three domains designated as MAM (meprin, A5 protein, receptor protein-tyrosine phosphatase mu), MATH (meprin and TRAF homology), and AM (AfterMath). Previous studies indicated that wild-type mouse meprin alpha is predominantly a secreted protein, while the MAM deletion mutant...
