PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
STRUCTURE
motifs/domains
  • prodomain with a cysteine residue,essential for latency and involved in autocatalytic activation
  • a catalytic domain with the zinc binding site (the cysteine switch)
  • a hinge region
  • a furin activation sequence
  • one hemopexin-like domain
  • a C terminal hydrophobic extension,representing a putative transmembrane segment
  • conjugated HemoP , MetalloP
