Target Information

The subtilisin-like prohormone convertase (PC) family is a group of cellular enzymes that cleave most prohormones and neuropeptide precursors. Numerous other cellular proteins, some viral proteins, and bacterial toxins transported by the constitutive secretory pathway are also targeted for maturation by PCs.
PC family members share structural similarities, including:

• An approximately 10 kDa amino-terminal proregion
• A highly conserved ~55 kDa subtilisin-like catalytic domain
• A heterogeneous carboxyl-terminal domain

These enzymes become catalytically active following proregion cleavage within the appropriate cellular compartment.
Immunolocalization studies show that PC1 is found in the perinuclear region and trans-Golgi network, whereas PC2 is located in the trans-Golgi network and diffusely distributed in the peripheral cytoplasm.
