pro-cholecystokinin + H2O
N-terminal propeptide + C-terminal cholecystokinin 8 Gly Arg Arg peptide + remaining CCK peptide
-
the substrate is only cleaved in vivo since defolding proteins are required, in vitro the cleavage site is inaccessible for the enzyme

pro-islet amyloid polypeptide + H2O
islet amyloid polypeptide processing intermediate + N-terminal pro-peptide
-
precursor of IAPP or amylin, the major component of islet amyloid, cleavage at the N-terminus, but not the C-terminus, which would also be required for activation, the complete activation is catalyzed by PC1, EC 3.4.21.93
