Biological activity
50 µL reaction mix (50 mM HEPES pH 7.4, 100 mM NaCl, 200 µM CaCl2, 0.05% Tween-20, 0.1% BSA, and up to 1500 ng PCSK9) is added to wells precoated with LDLR Ectodomain. Incubate for 2 hour. Add antibody against polyhistidine and then incubate 1 hour. Add secondary HRP labeled antibody and incubate 30 minutes. Finally, add HRP chemiluminescent substrates and read luminescence.

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
modificationsThe 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
