  • Limited autolysis of calcium-activated neutral protease (CANP): reduction of the Ca2+-requirement is due to the NH2-terminal processing of the large subunit. Abstract Text:

    s imajohS Imajoh,h kawasakiH Kawasaki,k suzukiK Suzuki,

    Calcium-activated neutral protease (rabbit mCANP), composed of large and small subunits, was converted to a lower-Ca2+-requiring form (derived microCANP) by limited autolysis in the presence of Ca2+. The NH2-terminal regions of the two subunits of mCANP were cleaved by autolysis, but the COOH-termini remained intact after autolysis. When native mCANP or derived microCANP was dissociated into subunits, the proteolytic activity of the large subunit was reduced to 2-5% of that of the native dimeric enzyme. The Ca2+-sensitivity of one hybrid CANP reconstituted from the large subunit of derived microCANP and the small subunit of native mCANP was similar to that of derived microCANP. However, the other hybrid molecule composed of the large subunit of native mCANP and the small subunit of derived microCANP required a high concentration of Ca2+ for activity, like native mCANP. These results indicate that the Ca2+-sensitivity of derived microCANP is determined by the structural change of the large subunit resulting from loss of its NH2-terminal region. The autolysis of the small subunit apparently has no effect on the reduction of the Ca2+-requirement.
