摘要: The proteolytic generation of mature interleukin-1β (IL-1β) from its inactive precursor does not proceed by a conventional pathway for hormonal processing. Pro-IL-1β is found dispersed in the cytoplasm, and there are no basic amino acid residues or other commonly recognized processing sites adjoining the mature N-terminus. Processing appears to occur during release of the hormone. In the present study, we have identified a specific protease that generates mature IL-1β from the precursor. This enzyme is co-induced with the …
