Structural determinants of specificity and regulation of activity in the allosteric loop network of human KLK8/neuropsin

Abstract Human KLK8/neuropsin, a kallikrein-related serine peptidase, is mostly expressed in skin and the hippocampus regions of the brain, where it regulates memory formation by synaptic remodeling. Substrate profiles of recombinant KLK8 were analyzed with positional scanning using fluorogenic tetr...
