A cryptic meprin-like proteolytic activity in mouse kidney brush border membranes.

The International journal of biochemistry - 1 Jan 1990

Macadam G C, Beynon R J, Bond J S

Abstract excerpt

1. Inbred mouse strains differ markedly in the expression of a kidney brush border metalloendopeptidase, meprin-a. 2. Brush border preparations from mice of the low-meprin-a phenotype (specific activities less than 5% of the high-meprin-a trait) contain a metallo-endopeptidase, meprin-b, that is larger than meprin-a, and which is inactive unless the membrane preparations are treated with trypsin. 3. This cryptic...
