Abstract excerpt
We describe the use of a template for the recognition site of signal peptidase to give score predictions for cleavage at normal and aberrant sites in human and chicken preproalbumin. As expected, the highest score obtained for human preproalbumin was at the normal cleavage site between -7 Ser and -6 Arg. The mutation in preproalbumin Kaikoura (-2 Arg----Cys) introduced an aberrant cleavage site in the propeptide...
