ANDREAS ANDERS, SANDRA GILBERT, et al.Regulation of the α-secretase ADAM10 by its prodomain and proprotein convertases1
Figure 3.
Model for
regulation of APP processing by proprotein convertases via proteolytical
activation of the α-secretase ADAM10 and
the β-secretase BACE. The prodomain of ADAM10
is necessary for the correct folding and maintains the proteinase in a
latent
state. Prodomain removal results in the
activation of the zymogen ADAM10.
In contrast, the prodomain of BACE is
cleaved by
furin but not by PC7. Arrows indicate
consecutive steps in proteinase maturation and function whereby
subcellular compartments
are not considered.
