Activating Compound

Activating Compound Comment Organism Structure
additional information meprin beta is expressed as an inactive zymogen and requires proteolytic maturation by tryptic serine proteases, e.g. by matriptase-2 (MT2), but not by TMPRSS4 or pancreatic trypsin Homo sapiens

Posttranslational Modification Comment Organism
glycoprotein deglycosylation of recombinant meprin beta by PNGaseF Homo sapiens
proteolytic modification metalloprotease meprin beta is activated by transmembrane serine protease matriptase-2 (MT2) at the cell surface. No processing by TMPRSS4 or pancreatic trypsin. The cleavage site for maturation within the propeptide of meprin beta is in close proximity to the plasma membrane, crystal structure analysis, PDB ID 4GWM.

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
metabolism metalloprotease meprin beta is activated by transmembrane serine protease matriptase-2 at the cell surface thereby enhancing amyloid precursor protein (APP) shedding Homo sapiens
additional information molecular structure modelling of promeprin beta nd meprin beta, overview Homo sapiens
physiological function protease meprin beta is expressed as an inactive zymogen and requires proteolytic maturation by tryptic serine proteases. Maturation of full-length meprin beta is required for its activity as a cell surface sheddase, releasing the ectodomains of transmembrane proteins, e.g. amyloid precursor protein (APP) Homo sapiens
