Proteinase 3 (PR3, myeloblastin) is an enzyme in fish and four-legged friends ( Euteleostomi , which taxonomically includes humans), which plays a role in the immune system with its antimicrobial effect . It is a serine protease that is related to neutrophil elastase (ELA2) and azurocidin (AZU), is encoded on the same gene segment and is built into neutrophils together with them . In an autoimmune disease in humans, granulomatosis with polyangiitis , antibodies are formed against the enzyme.

synthesis

The PR3 gene on chromosome 19 is distributed over 6.5 kilobases and 5 exons . The transcript has a length of 1001 bases and codes for 256 amino acids which, after splicing the signal sequence and the propeptide, result in a protein with 221 amino acids and 24 kDa molar mass. N- glycosylation at amino acids 129 and 174 (calculated from the unspliced ​​protein) finally produces the 29 kDa proteinase 3, a cationic glycoprotein .

Biological function

Proteinase 3 is a component of the primary (azurophilic, α-) granules of the neutrophilic granulocytes and lysosomes of the monocytes . The enzyme can be detected in the early stages of development of monocytes and granulocytes. If granulocytes are activated, the α-granules fuse with the cell membrane and thus release proteinase 3. In vitro this effect can be triggered by TNF-α. Proteinase 3 has proteolytic properties and cleaves z. B. elastin , fibronectin , laminin , hemoglobin and collagen type IV . Proteinase 3 has an antimicrobial effect against E. coli and C. albicans and is involved in the maturation of myeloid cells . The natural inhibitor of proteinase 3 is α-1 antitrypsin .
