Abstract excerpt

cDNA for the epithelial sialomucin episialin encodes a transmembrane molecule with a large extracellular domain, which mainly consists of repeats of 20 amino acids. Here we confirm the existence of a previously proposed proteolytic cleavage of episialin that occurs in the endoplasmic reticulum (Hilkens, J., and Buijs, F. (1988) J. Biol. Chem. 263, 4215-4222) and show that a similar cleavage takes place in in...
