Inactive Zymogen and Highly Active Proteolytically Processed Membrane-Bound Forms of the Transglutaminase 1 Enzyme in Human Epidermal Keratinocytes

The transglutaminase 1 enzyme is important for the formation of a cornified cell envelope in terminally differentiating keratinocytes. We show here that it is present in low levels in proliferating foreskin or cultured epidermal cells as an inactive zymogen full length form of 106 kDa, of which >...
