See the [[protease problems]] page.
 
The small size and limited secondary and tertiary structure in our target proteins may make them more prone to unwanted degredation by proteases in the yeast secretory pathway. Research turns up three yeast secretory pathway endoproteases that may be problematic:
 
*[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/P13134 Kex2] Required for alpha-factor cleavage
** Seems like it primarily cleaves Lys-Arg (KR) and Arg-Arg (RR) but can also cleave other Arg-containing sites.
** Uniprot says: Cleavage of -Lys-Arg-|-Xaa- and -Arg-Arg-|-Xaa- bonds to process yeast alpha-factor pheromone and killer toxin precursors.
*[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/P32329 Yps1] (also known as Yap3)
** "The cleavage site of this enzyme appeared identical to that of the KEX2-encoded endopeptidase." <ref>http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2183521</ref>
*[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/P53379 Yps2] (also known as Mkc7)
**Uniprot says: Hydrolyzes various precursor proteins with Arg or Lys in P1, and commonly Arg or Lys also in P2. The P3 amino acid is usually non-polar, but otherwise additional basic amino acids are favorable in both non-prime and prime positions.
*[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/Q12303 Yps3] <ref>http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1220171/pdf/10191273.pdf</ref>
**Uniprot says: Cleaves proteins C-terminally to mono- and paired-basic residues.
*[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/P40583 Yps6]
**Uniprot says: Cleaves proteins C-terminally to mono- and paired-basic residues.
*[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/Q06325 Yps7]
**Uniprot says: Belongs to the [http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/?query=family:%22peptidase+A1+family%22 peptidase A1 family].
 
 
Yapsins (YpsN) proteases are apparently important for cell wall integrity <ref>http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16087741</ref>.
 
People have used a strain lacking Yap3 and Mkc7 genes to express proteolytically sensitive short (41 aa) peptides in S. cerevisiae <ref>http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1219280/pdf/9494104.pdf</ref>.

== Yps1 / Yap3 ==
 
One of the yapsins. The yapsins are apparently important for cell wall integrityt.
 
"The cleavage site of this enzyme appeared identical to that of the KEX2-encoded endopeptidase." and "Strains disrupted in YAP3 are both viable and able to process the mating factor alpha precursor." <ref>http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2183521</ref>
 
== Kex2 ==
 
Kex2 is a high-specificity membrane-bound endoprotease involved in cleaving alpha-factor in the secretory pathway.
 
Kex2 potentially cleaves at Lys-Arg|, Arg-Arg|, Pro-Arg|, Ala-Arg| and Thr-Arg| but seems to prefer Lys-Arg| <ref>http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1736307</ref>.
 
[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kexin Wikipedia says] that it cleaves Lys-Arg and Arg-Arg bonds.
 
Kex2 potentially cleaves at Arg|, Arg|Lys, Pro-Arg| <ref>http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7819327</ref>.
 
= Target proteins =
 
Kex2 protease cleaves primarily at KR or RR sites. It is responsible for cleaving off the alpha-factor secretion signal.
