Purification of ovine placental lactogen (oPL) using high-performance liquid chromatography. Evidence for two forms of oPL.

abstract：:Proteolytic processing is an important post-translational modification affecting protein activity and stability. In the current study, we investigate the N-terminal cleavage of Trop2, a protein which is overexpressed in many cancers. We demonstrate that Trop2 is cleaved at Arg87 by a transmembrane serine protease, mat...
