An Arthropod Enzyme, Dfurin 1, and a Vertebrate Furin Homolog Display Distinct Cleavage Site Sequence Preferences for a Shared Viral Proprotein Substrate
Alphaviruses replicate in vertebrate and arthropod cells and utilize a cellular enzyme called furin to process the PE2 glycoprotein precursor during virus replication in both cell types. Furin cleaves PE2 at a site immediately following a highly conserved four residue cleavage signal. Prior studies...
