WB
Application notes
WB: 1/1000 - 1/5000. Predicted molecular weight: 74 kDa. Recommended starting dilution 1/1000 with colourimetrtic substrates, 1/5000 with chemiluminescent substrates. Dilution optimised using Chromogenic detection. Not yet tested in other applications. Optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user. The 692 amino acid form has a predicted mass of 74.49 kDa, and a pI of 6.09, but glycosylation and other post-translational modifications make the pre-pro PC9 run at 78-80 kDa, the mature PC9 at 58 kDa
Target
Function
May be implicated in the differentiation of cortical neurons and may play a role in cholesterol homeostasis.
Tissue specificity
Expressed in neuro-epithelioma, colon carcinoma, hepatic and pancreatic cell lines, and in Schwann cells.
Involvement in disease
Defects in PCSK9 are the cause of familial hypercholesterolemia 3 (FH3) [MIM:603776]. FH3 inheritance is autosomal dominant.
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the peptidase S8 family.
Contains 1 peptidase S8 domain.
Post-translational
modifications
The soluble zymogen undergoes autocatalytic intramolecular processing in the endoplasmic reticulum, resulting in the cleavage of its propeptide that remains associated with the secreted enzyme.
Cellular localization
Secreted.
