Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
additional information deletion of prodomain residues 31-40, 41-50, or 51-60 does not affect the self-cleavage, secretion, or LDLR-degrading activity of PCSK9, whereas deletion of residues 61-70 abolishes all of these functions. Deletion of the entire C-terminal domain does not impair PCSK9 self-cleavage or secretion but completely abolishes LDLR-degrading activity. Deletion of any one or two of the C-terminal domain modules does not affect self-cleavage but influences secretion and LDLR-reducing activity. In cotransfection experiments, a secretion-defective prodomain deletion mutant is efficiently secreted in the presence of C-terminal domain deletion mutants due to the transfer of the prodomain from the cotransfected C-terminal domain mutant to the prodomain mutant Homo sapiens
