An aspartyl cathepsin, CTH3, is essential for proprotein processing during secretory granule maturation in Tetrahymena thermophila
In animal cells, the assembly of dense cores in secretory granules is controlled by proteolytic processing of proproteins. The same phenomenon occurs in the ciliate Tetrahymena thermophila, but the proteases involved appear to be highly unrelated, suggesting that similar regulatory mechanisms have d...
