Biochemical Activity
An interaction is inferred from the biochemical effect of one protein upon another, for example, GTP-GDP exchange activity or phosphorylation of a substrate by a kinase. The bait protein executes the activity on the substrate hit protein. A Modification value is recorded for interactions of this type with the possible values Phosphorylation, Ubiquitination, Sumoylation, Dephosphorylation, Methylation, Prenylation, Acetylation, Deubiquitination, Proteolytic Processing, Glucosylation, Nedd(Rub1)ylation, Deacetylation, No Modification, Demethylation.
Publication
Heterologously overexpressed, affinity-purified human meprin alpha is functionally active and cleaves components of the basement membrane in vitro.
Meprins are astacin-like metalloproteases of renal and intestinal epithelia and embryonic neuroepithelial cells. The full length cDNA of the human meprin alpha subunit has been overexpressed in baculovirus-infected insect cells yielding the tetrameric proprotein which could be proteolytically activated and affinity-purified to homogeneity. Recombinant meprin alpha hydrolyzes the synthetic substrate N-benzoyl-tyrosyl-p-aminobenzoic acid (PABA-peptide) and cleaves by limited proteolysis the basement ... [more]
