Posttranslational Modification

Posttranslational Modification Comment Organism
proteolytic modification TMPRSS2-encoded serine protease is expressed as a 70000 MW full-length form and a cleaved 32000 MW protease domain. The proteolytic cleavage is dependent on catalytic activity, suggesting that it occurs as a result of autocleavage. The cleavage site is at Arg255 Homo sapiens
