Sequences surrounding proteolytic cut sites are conserved in the propeptide of gelatinase A orthologues. Blue arrow indicates the N-terminus created by removal of the secretory signal during translation, green indicates the N-terminus of the intermediate created by MT1-MMP and red indicates the active MMP-2 terminus thought to be an autocatalytic cleavage site (Strongin et al., 1993). Grey shading indicates the novel cut site detectable by thrombin/factor Xa when mutagenesis (?, ?) blocks the recognition of the other two cut sites (Koo et al., 2009). Asterisk marks the cysteine of the cysteine switch. Sequence coordinates marked are alignment coordinates, not protein coordinates. |
