Functional analysis of the gene bli-4 in caenorhabditis elegans
Many biologically active compounds are first formed as inactive precursors. Their activation results from proteolytic cleavage, largely accomplished by a group of enzymes known as KEX2/subtilisin-like proprotein convertases, or kexins. This family of enzymes has been described in a number of spe...
