Posttranslational Modification

EC Number Posttranslational Modification Comment Organism
3.4.24.63 proteolytic modification activation of meprin beta by proteolytic cleavage. Meprin beta contains a conserved sequence motif, which gives rise to enzymatic activation by tryptic serine proteases. Pancreatic trypsin performs this activation in the gut. Meprin beta cannot be activated by plasmin in the gut. In skin, the human tissue kallikrein-related peptidase 4 (KLK4), KLK5, and KLK8, cleave off the propeptide of meprin beta Homo sapiens

General Information

EC Number General Information Comment Organism
3.4.24.63 evolution meprin beta belongs to the astacin family of zinc-endopeptidases and the metzincin superfamily, characterized by the conserved motif HExxHxxGxxHxxxRxDR. Meprin beta is the only membrane-bound member of the astacin family Homo sapiens
3.4.24.63 physiological function meprin beta acts at the cell surface as a sheddase, cleaving transmembrane proteins, such as the amyloid precursor protein (APP). Meprins cleave compounds of the extracellular matrix such as laminin-V, collagen IV, fibronectin or nidogen 1, but also growth factors, cytokines and peptide hormones, including bradykinin, angiotensins, and gastrin Homo sapiens
