  • Title: Characterization of multiple prohormone convertase PC1/3 transcripts in porcine ovary.
    Author: Dai G, Smeekens SP, Steiner DF, McMurtry JP, Kwok SC.
    Journal: Biochim Biophys Acta; 1995 Oct 17; 1264(1):1-6. PubMed ID: 7578241.
    Abstract:
    Overlapping cDNAs encoding porcine prohormone convertase, PC1/3, have been isolated from a pregnant sow ovary cDNA library using a mouse PC1/3 cDNA as a probe. Nucleotide sequence analysis of these cDNAs predicts a PC1/3 precursor protein of 753 amino acid residues, which shares an overall sequence homology of 96, 92, and 92% with the human, rat, and mouse counterparts, respectively. Furthermore, five different polyadenylation sites have been observed. The utilization of these polyadenylation sites results in a length difference of 40-440 bp in the 3' untranslated regions of the transcripts.
