General annotation (Comments)

Function

This enzyme is necessary for target cell lysis in cell-mediated immune responses. It cleaves after Lys or Arg. Cleaves APEX1 after 'Lys-30' and destroys its oxidative repair activity. Involved in apoptosis By similarity.

Catalytic activity

Hydrolysis of proteins, including fibronectin, type IV collagen and nucleolin. Preferential cleavage: -Arg-|-Xaa-, -Lys-|-Xaa- >> -Phe-|-Xaa- in small molecule substrates.

Subunit structure

Interacts with APEX1 By similarity. Homodimer; disulfide-linked.

Subcellular location

Secreted. Cytoplasmic granule. Note: Cytoplasmic granules of cytolytic T-lymphocytes.

Tissue specificity

Found in cytotoxic lymphocytes and in normal lymphoid tissues such as thymus and spleen.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the peptidase S1 family. Granzyme subfamily.

Contains 1 peptidase S1 domain.

Caution

The predicted cleavage site for the activation peptide of HF2 is uncertain. It could have either 2 (ER) or 7 (KRGGCER) AA.

Alternative products

This entry describes 2 isoforms produced by alternative splicing. [Align] [Select]
Isoform HF1 (identifier: P11032-1)

This isoform has been chosen as the 'canonical' sequence. All positional information in this entry refers to it. This is also the sequence that appears in the downloadable versions of the entry.
Note: More abundant in lymphoid tissues than isoform HF2.
Isoform HF2 (identifier: P11032-2)

The sequence of this isoform differs from the canonical sequence as follows:
     1-23: MRNASGPRGPSLATLLFLLLIPE → MSKEMNEILLSWEINLSSKR
