http://purl.uniprot.org/citations/9582421http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#comment"Proteolysis of the amyloid beta protein precursor (APP) is a key event in the development of Alzheimer's disease. In our search for proteases that can cleave APP and liberate the amino terminus of the amyloidogenic beta protein, we characterized a calcium-dependent serine protease (CASP) which is present in reactive astrocytes and cross-reacts with anti-cathepsin G antibodies. We wanted to take advantage of this cross-reactivity to clone the cDNA of CASP and eventually evaluate its tissue distribution. Screening of two human fetal brain cDNA libraries with anti-cathepsin G antibodies led to the identification of a cDNA coding for a novel protein whose only homology to known proteins is to the active site of trypsin-type serine proteases. We called this protein the novel serine protease (NSP). NSP exists in at least three differentially spliced forms, one of which is expressed predominantly in brain and testis. Immunohistochemistry and immunoprecipitation with antibodies generated against NSP show that it is expressed and secreted by a variety of cells and that, in brain, it is found primarily in cerebrovascular smooth muscle cells and reactive astrocytes."xsd:string
