PCSK9 is a member of the subtilisinlike proprotein convertase family, which includes proteases that process protein and peptide precursors trafficking through regulated or constitutive branches of the secretory pathway.
It is expressed in liver, intestine and kidney tissues and escorts specific receptors for lysosomal degradation.
It plays a role in cholesterol and fatty acid metabolism.
Mutations in PCSK9 have been associated with autosomal dominant familial hypercholesterolemia.
Alternatively spliced transcripts encoding different proteins have been described.
The insert is sequence verified and the entire plasmid DNA and insert translated sequences are provided.
