Beschreibung

Application

Furin is capable of cleaving precursors of a wide variety of proteins, including growth factors, serum proteins, including proteases of the blood-clotting and complement systems, matrix metalloproteinases, receptors, viral-envelope glycoproteins, and bacterial exotoxins, typically at sites marked by the consensus sequence Arg-Xaa-(Lys/Arg)-Arg.[1]

Biochem/physiol Actions

Furin is a dibasic endoprotease that is localized in the Golgi apparatus. It is responsible for the proteolytic maturation of many precursor proteins in the secretory and endocytic pathways of mammalian cells.

Furin is a dibasic endoprotease that is localized in the Golgi apparatus. It has a molecular mass of 52.7 kDa. It is responsible for the proteolytic maturation of many precursor proteins in the secretory and endocytic pathways of mammalian cells.[2] Furin cleaves precursor proteins at their paired basic amino acid processing sites. Some substrates of furin include von Willebrand factor, transforming growth factor beta 1 precursor, pro-beta-secretase and proparathyroid hormone.

Physical form

Solution in 10 mM MES, pH 7.0 at 25 °C, 1 mM CaCl₂, 50% glycerol.

Preparation Note

Isolated from Spodoptera frugiperda (Sf9) cells infected with recombinant baculovirus carrying truncated human furin

Other Notes

One unit is defined as the amount of enzyme required to cleave 25 μg of a MBP-FN-paramyosin-ΔSal substrate to 95% completion in 6 hours at 25°C in a total reaction volume of 25 μl.
