Cloned (Comment) | Organism |
---|---|
gene FURIN, recombinant expression of glycosylated aa108-574-TEV-FLAG-His6-furin and nonglycosylated aa108-574-TEV-FLAG-His6 N387D/N440D furin mutant (ectodomains with a TEV cleavage site) from plasmid termed furin aa1-574 in CHO cells and in Spodoptera frugiperda Sf9 cells via BacMam virus transfection, typically producing a highly glycosylated, heterogeneous protein | Homo sapiens |
Crystallization (Comment) | Organism |
---|---|
purified recombinant furin mutant N387D/N440D in nonglycosylated apo-form, vapor diffusion method, 400 nl of 6 mg/ml of apo-furin (aa108-574-TEV-FLAG-His6 N387D/N440D) in 10 mM HEPES, pH 7.5, 150 mM NaCl, and 5 mM CaCl2, is mixed with 400 nl of crystallization solution containing 11-13% PEG 8000, 0.11-0.16 M potassium dihydrogen phosphate, and 0.1 M HEPES, pH 7.5, at 4°C, X-ray diffraction structure determination and analysis at 1.89 A resolution. The nonglycosylated furin protein reliably forms extremely durable apo crystals that diffract to high resolution, crystals are stable at 4°C for over one year. Digestion with TEV protease for the removal of the His6 and FLAG tags is not necessary for crystallization | Homo sapiens |

additional information | expression and purification of nonglycosylated human furin using the BacMam technology and site-directed mutagenesis of the glycosylation sites. Recombinant nonglycosylated furin produced using this system retains full proteolytic activity indistinguishable from that of the glycosylated protein | Homo sapiens |
N387D/N440D | site-directed mutagenesis, mutation of glycosylation sites | Homo sapiens |

General Information | Comment | Organism |
---|---|---|
evolution | furin belongs to the proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin (PCSK) family of enzymes play a crucial role in processing and trafficking of a wide variety of precursor proteins such as hormones, receptors, and enzymes | Homo sapiens |
malfunction | dysregulation of furin is implicated in numerous disease states, including cancer and fibrosis | Homo sapiens |
physiological function | furin is a calcium-dependent serine endoprotease that processes a wide variety of proproteins involved in cell function and homeostasis | Homo sapiens |
