MBTPS1 PrEST Antigen

Protein function: Serine protease that cleaves after hydrophobic or small residues, provided that Arg or Lys is in position P4: known substrates are SREBF1/SREBP1, SREBF2/SREBP2, BDNF, GNPTAB, ATF6 and ATF6B (PubMed:10644685, PubMed:12782636, PubMed:21719679). Cleaves substrates after Arg-Ser-Val-Leu (SREBP2), Arg-His-Leu-Leu (ATF6), Arg-Gly-Leu-Thr (BDNF) and its own propeptide after Arg-Arg-Leu-Leu (PubMed:10644685, PubMed:21719679). Catalyzes the first step in the proteolytic activation of the sterol regulatory element-binding proteins (SREBPs) SREBF1/SREBP1 and SREBF2/SREBP2 (PubMed:12782636). Also mediates the first step in the proteolytic activation of the cyclic AMP-dependent transcription factor ATF-6 (ATF6 and ATF6B) (PubMed:12782636). Mediates the protein cleavage of GNPTAB into subunit alpha and beta, thereby participating in biogenesis of lysosomes (PubMed:21719679). Involved in the regulation of M6P-dependent Golgi-to-lysosome trafficking of lysosomal enzymes (PubMed:21719679, PubMed:30046013). It is required for the activation of CREB3L2/BBF2H7, a transcriptional activator of MIA3/TANGO and other genes controlling mega vesicle formation (PubMed:30046013). Therefore, it plays a key role in the regulation of mega vesicle-mediated collagen trafficking (PubMed:30046013). [The UniProt Consortium] Buffer: PBS and 1M Urea, pH 7.4.
