Abstract excerpt
Surfactant protein C (SP-C) is a lung-specific protein that is synthesized as a 21-kDa integral membrane propeptide (pro-SP-C) and proteolytically processed to a 3.7-kDa secretory product. Previous studies have shown that palmitoylation of pro-SP-C is dependent on two N-terminal juxtamembrane pos...
