Cloning of the cDNA and gene of mouse mast cell protease-6. Transcription by progenitor mast cells and mast cells of the connective tissue subclass
1 Feb 1991
Abstract excerpt
The cDNA and gene for mouse mast cell protease-6 (MMCP-6) have been sequenced and show MMCP-6 to be translated as a prepro-enzyme with a 21-amino acid hydrophobic leader peptide, a 10-amino acid activation peptide, and a 245-amino acid mature enzyme. The mature form of the enzyme has 73% amino acid sequence identity with human and dog mast cell tryptases. The MMCP-6 gene includes 6 exons, with a total span of 1.8...
