Frequently Asked Questions

• What is the function of He Kexin?

  For the Chinese gymnast, see He KEXIN. KEXIN ( EC 3.4.21.61) is a prohormone -processing protease, specifically a yeast serine peptidase, found in the budding yeast ( S. cerevisiae ). It catalyzes the cleavage of -Lys-Arg- and -Arg-Arg- bonds to process yeast alpha-factor pheromone and killer toxin precursors.

• What is the human homolog of Kexin?

  The human homolog is PCSK4. It is a family of subtilisin-like peptidases. Even though there are a few prokaryote KEXIN-like peptidases, all KEXINs are eukaryotes. The enzyme is encoded by the yeast gene KEX2, and usually referred to in the scientific community as Kex2p.

• Who is Kexin ye from the apprentice?

  For as long as she can remember, KEXIN Ye has always found ways to make something from nothing. Now, the German native will showcase her entrepreneurial spirit on “The Apprentice: ONE Championship Edition,” where she will compete for a one-year, US$250,000 contract to work directly under ONE Chairman and CEO Chatri Sityodtong.

• What is Kex2p?

  It is a family of subtilisin-like peptidases. Even though there are a few prokaryote KEXIN-like peptidases, all KEXINs are eukaryotes. The enzyme is encoded by the yeast gene KEX2, and usually referred to in the scientific community as Kex2p. It shares structural similarities with the bacterial protease subtilisin.

• Why choose Kexin?

• Does Saccharomyces cerevisiae Kexin secrete exoglucanase?

  Saccharomyces cerevisiae KEXIN (Kex2p) processes several substrates in vivo, including pro-α-factor, pro-killer toxin, Hsp150p [48], a secreted exoglucanase precursor [49], and a variety of heterologous molecules [50]. Other fungal KEXINs also cleave mating pheromone precursors and/or pro-killer toxins as well.
