Abstract excerpt
Biologically active peptide hormones are synthesized from larger precursor proteins by a variety of post-translational processing reactions. To characterize these processing reactions further we have expressed preprogastrin in two endocrine cell lines and examined the molecular determinants involved in endoproteolysis at dibasic cleavage sites. The Gly93-Arg94-Arg95 carboxyl-terminal processing site of progastrin...
