Entrez Gene Number
Entrez Gene SummaryThis gene encodes a proprotein convertase belonging to the proteinase K subfamily of the secretory subtilase family. The encoded protein is synthesized as a soluble zymogen that undergoes autocatalytic intramolecular processing in the endoplasmic reticulum. The protein may function as a proprotein convertase. This protein plays a role in cholesterol homeostasis and may have a role in the differentiation of cortical neurons. Mutations in this gene have been associated with a third form of autosomal dominant familial hypercholesterolemia (HCHOLA3).
Gene Symbol
  • PCSK9
  • NARC1
  • NARC-1
  • FH3
  • HCHOLA3
Purification MethodSerum
UniProt Number
UniProt SummaryFUNCTION: SwissProt: Q8NBP7 # May be implicated in the differentiation of cortical neurons and may play a role in cholesterol homeostasis.
COFACTOR: Calcium (Probable).
SIZE: 692 amino acids; 74372 Da
SUBUNIT: The precursor protein but not the mature protein may form multimers.
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted.
TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed in neuro-epithelioma, colon carcinoma, hepatic and pancreatic cell lines, and in Schwann cells.
PTM: The soluble zymogen undergoes autocatalytic intramolecular processing in the endoplasmic reticulum, resulting in the cleavage of its propeptide that remains associated with the secreted enzyme.
DISEASE:SwissProt: Q8NBP7 # Defects in PCSK9 are the cause of familial hypercholesterolemia 3 (FH3) [MIM:603776]. FH3 inheritance is autosomal dominant.
SIMILARITY: SwissProt: Q8NBP7 ## Belongs to the peptidase S8 family. & Contains 1 peptidase S8 domain.
