PLAC domain profile
The PLAC (protease and lacunin) domain is a six cysteine region of about 40 residues which is present at or near the C-termini of:
- Mammalian paired basic amino acid cleaving enzyme 4 (PACE4).
- Mammalian proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 5 (PCSK5).
- Mammalian metalloproteases ADAMTS-2, -3, -10, -12, -14, -16, -17 and -19.
- Manduca sexta lacunin, a matrix protein that is also dynamically expressed on basal surfaces of epithelial cells during embryonic and postembryonic and morphogenesis.
The PLAC domain is found associated with other domains such as the thrombospondin type I repeat (TSP1) (see <PDOC50092>), the Kunitz proteinase inhibitor domain (see <PDOC00252>), the Ig-like domain (see <PDOC50835>), the WAP domain, the subtilase domain (see <PDOC00125>), or the ADAM type metalloprotease domain (see <PDOC50215>). The function of the PLAC domain is not yet known [1,2].
The profile we developed covers the entire PLAC domain.
