Abstract

Membrane-type serine protease 1 (MT-SP1) was recently cloned, and we now report its biochemical characterization. MT-SP1 is predicted to be a type II transmembrane protein with an extracellular protease domain. This localization was experimentally verified using immunofluorescent microscopy and a cell-surface biotinylation technique. The substrate specificity of MT-SP1 was determined using a positional scanning-synthetic combinatorial library and substrate phage techniques. The preferred cleavage sequences were found to be (P4-(Arg/Lys)P3-(X)P2-(Ser)P1-(Arg)P1'-(Ala)) and (P4-(X)P3-(Arg/Lys)P2-(Ser)P1(Arg) P1'(Ala)), where X is a non-basic amino acid. Protease-activated receptor 2 (PAR2) and single-chain urokinase-type plasminogen activator are proteins that are localized to the extracellular surface and contain the preferred MT-SP1 cleavage sequence. The ability of MT-SP1 to activate PARs was assessed by exposing PAR-expressing Xenopus oocytes to the soluble MT-SP1 protease domain. The latter triggered calcium signaling in PAR2-expressing oocytes at 10 nm but failed to trigger calcium signaling in oocytes expressing PAR1, PAR3, or PAR4 at 100 nm. Single-chain urokinase-type plasminogen activator was activated using catalytic amounts of MT-SP1 (1 nm), but plasminogen was not cleaved under similar conditions. The membrane localization of MT-SP1 and its affinity for these key extracellular substrates suggests a role of the proteolytic activity in regulatory events.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
