General annotation (Comments)

Function

Tryptase is the major neutral protease present in mast cells and is secreted upon the coupled activation-degranulation response of this cell type By similarity.

Catalytic activity

Preferential cleavage: Arg-|-Xaa, Lys-|-Xaa, but with more restricted specificity than trypsin.

Subunit structure

Homotetramer. The active tetramer is converted to inactive monomers at neutral and acidic pH in the absence of heparin. Low concentrations of inactive monomers become active monomers at pH 6.0 in the presence of heparin. When the concentration of active monomers is higher, they convert to active monomers and then to active tetramers. These monomers are active and functionally distinct from the tetrameric enzyme. In contrast to the hidden active sites in the tetrameric form, the active site of the monomeric form is accessible for macromolecular proteins and inhibitors eg: fibrinogen which is a substrate for the monomeric but not for the tetrameric form. The monomeric form forms a complex with SERPINB6. Ref.11

Subcellular location

Secreted. Note: Released from the secretory granules upon mast cell activation By similarity.

Polymorphism

There are two alleles alpha and beta-I. The sequence shown is that of allele beta-I.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the peptidase S1 family. Tryptase subfamily.

Contains 1 peptidase S1 domain.
