From the Cellular trafficking of subtilisin/kexin-like
precursor convertases (PCs) may be regulated by a number of motifs,
some of which are present within the P-domain and in the C-terminal
sequence. Six of the seven known PCs contain a conserved RGD sequence
within the P domain. In order to investigate the functional importance of this motif, we generated mutants of PC1 that contain a Myc tag
epitope inserted between the prosegment and the catalytic subunit.
Cellular expression of vaccinia virus recombinants revealed that this
tag did not seem to influence the autocatalytic conversion of proPC1
into PC1 or its bioactivity. The two PC1 variants produced possess
either the wild type RGD sequence or its RGE mutant. Stable transfectants of these variants in AtT20 cells revealed that similar to
the wild type enzyme, PC1-RGD-Myc is sorted to secretory granules. In
contrast, PC1-RGE-Myc exits the cell via the constitutive secretory pathway. In vitro, a 14-mer peptide spanning the RGD
sequence of PC1, but not its RGE mutant, binds to cell surface
vitronectin-binding integrins of Chinese hamster ovary cells. However,
within the endoplasmic reticulum and in an RGD-independent fashion,

well as proPC2. Thus, the observed discrimination between the secretion
