Abstract excerpt
Collagen XVII/BP180, an epithelial adhesion molecule, belongs to the group of collagenous transmembrane proteins, which are characterized by ectodomain shedding. We recently showed that ADAMs can cleave collagen XVII, but also that furin participates in this process (Franzke, C. W., Tasanen, K.,...
