Abstract excerpt
The human protein C precursor undergoes extensive co- and posttranslational modification during its biosynthesis in the liver. These modifications include glycosylation, gamma-carboxylation and beta-hydroxylation of specific amino acids, and endoproteolytic processing to remove the pre- and propeptides and also to remove the pair of basic amino acids that connect the light and heavy chains in the precursor....
