Subcellular location

Subcellular Location:
Cytoplasmic vesicle, secretory vesicle. Note=Localized in the secretion granules.

Function

Function:
Involved in the processing of hormone and other protein precursors at sites comprised of pairs of basic amino acid residues. Substrates include POMC, renin, enkephalin, dynorphin, somatostatin, insulin and AGRP.
Catalytic Activity:
Release of protein hormones, neuropeptides and renin from their precursors, generally by hydrolysis of -Lys-Arg-|- bonds.
Cofactor:
COFACTOR: Name=Ca(2+); Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:29108;
Active Site:
ACT_SITE 167 167 Charge relay system.
