High impact information on POL3S

  • Identification and characterization of human polyserase-3, a novel protein with tandem serine-protease domains in the same polypeptide chain [1].
  • Comparative analysis of polyserase-3 with the two human polyserases described to date, revealed that this novel polyprotein is more closely related to polyserase-2 than to polyserase-1 [1].
  • Enzymatic assays indicated that recombinant polyserase-3 degrades the alpha-chain of fibrinogen as well as pro-urokinase-type plasminogen activator (pro-uPA) [1].
  • Northern blot analysis showed that polyserase-3 exhibits a unique expression pattern among human polyserases, being predominantly detected in testis, liver, heart and ovary, as well as in several tumor cell lines [1].
