Comments
  • FUNCTION: Shows particularly broad specificity; although bonds involving phenylalanine and leucine are preferred, many others are also cleaved to some extent.
  • CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: Preferential cleavage: hydrophobic, preferably aromatic, residues in P1 and P1' positions. Cleaves 1-Phe-|-Val-2, 4-Gln-|-His-5, 13-Glu-|-Ala-14, 14-Ala-|-Leu-15, 15-Leu-|-Tyr-16, 16-Tyr-|-Leu-17, 23-Gly-|-Phe-24, 24-Phe-|-Phe-25 and 25-Phe-|-Tyr-26 bonds in the B chain of insulin.
  • SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted.
  • DEVELOPMENTAL STAGE: Pepsin A-2 is predominant at the 4-month stage. Pepsin A-3 is predominant at fetal stages.
  • PTM: Pepsin A-2 is phosphorylated, but not pepsin A-3.
  • PTM: Each pepsinogen is converted to corresponding pepsin at pH 2.0 in part as a result of the release of a 47 AA activation segment and in part as a result of stepwise proteolytic cleavage via an intermediate form(s).
  • MISCELLANEOUS: The expression of pepsinogen genes is regulated by hormones and related substances.
  • SIMILARITY: Belongs to the peptidase A1 family [view classification].
  • CAUTION: It is not known if this is Pep A-2 or Pep A-3.
