Furin, also known as Paired basic aa residue cleaving enzyme, is a 794aa containing membrane associated protein circulating between the trans-Golgi network and cell surface.
It belongs to the peptidase S8 family and Furin subfamily with a homo B/P domain.
Known to represent the ubiquitous endoprotease activity within constitutive secretory pathways, Furin, a calcium-dependent serine endoprotease, can efficiently cleave precursor proteins at their paired basic aa processing sites (RX (K/R) R consensus motif).
This proprotein convertase enzyme processes latent precursor proteins into their biologically active products and is important in the release of albumin and complement component C3 from their respective precursors and in the physiologic processing of proparathyroid hormone, von Willebrand factor, insulin receptor, TGF1B, hepatocyte growth factor, C propeptide of collagen type V, alpha 1, NOTCH signaling proteins, certain viral envelope glycoproteins and ED1.
Ubiquitous expression of Furin is seen in most of the tissues.
It may also play a role in tumor progression and maintainance of immune tolerance.
