Characterization of the molecular basis of the Drosophila mutations in carboxypeptidase D. Effect on enzyme activity and expression.

Abstract excerpt

Carboxypeptidase D (CPD) functions in the processing of proteins and peptides in the secretory pathway. Drosophila CPD is encoded by the silver gene (svr), which is differentially spliced to produce long transmembrane protein forms with three metallocarboxypeptidase (CP)-like domains and short soluble forms with a single CP domain. Many svr mutants have been reported, but the precise molecular defects have not...
