Proprotein convertase activation of aggrecanases in cartilage in situ
Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 2008Proteolytic degradation of the major cartilage macromolecules, aggrecan and type II collagen, is a key pathological event in osteoarthritis (OA). ADAMTS-4 and ADAMTS-5, the primary aggrecanases capable of cartilage aggrecan cleavage, are synthesized as latent enzymes and require prodomain removal for activity.

Proprotein convertases as therapeutic targets
Expert Opinion on Therapeutic Targets, 2008Limited endoproteolysis of precursor proteins is a common mechanism of production of functional proteins and peptides. In the secretory pathway of eukaryotic cells, this endoproteolysis is principally mediated by a family of calcium-dependent serine proteases, generically known as proprotein convertases.

Proprotein Convertases in Health and Disease
New England Journal of Medicine, 2011Proteases that process larger precursor proteins into smaller functional proteins are involved in a wide range of physiologic processes. Derangements in the function of these enzymes play a role in many diseases.

The major endoproteolytic processing enzymes of the secretory pathway are the subtilisin-like proprotein convertases (SPCs). Furin (SPC1) has emerged as one of the major processing enzymes of the constitutive secretory pathway and its localization in the trans-Golgi network and mechanism of autoactivation have been studied in considerable detail ...
