Abstract excerpt
Processing of precursor proteins by the proprotein convertases is thought to occur mainly in the trans-Golgi network or post-Golgi compartments. Such cleavage is inhibited by the prosegment of the convertases. During our studies of the use of the inhibitory prosegment of PC1, we noticed that a construct containing the prosegment fused to the C-terminal secretory granule sorting domain was cleaved in the...
