CC -!- FUNCTION: Cysteine protease that cleaves specifically after arginine or
CC lysine residues. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18005666,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:23506317}.
CC -!- ACTIVITY REGULATION: Activated by Ca(2+) (PubMed:18005666,
CC PubMed:23506317, PubMed:28089596, PubMed:22529389). In response to
CC calcium binding, the 280-loop, a disordered loop consisting of residues
CC 269-275, undergoes a conformational change which stabilizes substrates
CC in the active site (PubMed:22529389). The binding to the substrate
CC triggers the release of the N-terminal region resulting in the
CC activation of the enzyme (PubMed:22529389). Proteolytic cleavage is
CC required for catalytic activity towards large protein substrates
CC (PubMed:28089596). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18005666,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:22529389, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23506317,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:28089596}.
CC -!- BIOPHYSICOCHEMICAL PROPERTIES:
CC pH dependence:
CC Optimum pH is 7.7. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23506317,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:28089596};
CC Temperature dependence:
CC Optimum temperature is 20-25 degrees Celsius.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23506317};
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Monomer. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22529389}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Recycling endosome
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q8T8E7}.
CC -!- DOMAIN: There are 2 calcium binding sites with high and low affinity,
CC respectively. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23506317}.
CC -!- PTM: Auto-proteolytic cleavage of the propeptide after Lys-55 and
CC between the large and small subunits after Lys-268 is required for
CC catalytic activity towards large protein substrates but is dispensable
CC towards small oligopeptide substrates (PubMed:18005666,
CC PubMed:28089596, PubMed:22529389). After processing, the propeptide and
CC the large and small subunits remain associated by non-covalent bonds
CC (PubMed:18005666). In vivo, the unprocessed enzyme appears to be the
CC predominant form (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q8T8E7,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:18005666, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22529389,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:28089596}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the peptidase C14B family. {ECO:0000305}.
