Abstract excerpt
Recent reports reveal that the C-terminal half of the neuroendocrine polypeptide 7B2 selectively inhibits and binds PC2, a mammalian prohormone converting enzyme that is homologous to the yeast pro-alpha-factor processing protease Kex2. During attempted secretion of the 185 amino-acid human 7B2 in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, we observe that the protein is mostly retained inside the cell. However a mutant...
