Bovine parathyroid chromogranin A inhibits the cleavage of Z-Ala-Lys-Arg-AMC by either trypsin or IRCM-serine protease 1 (IRCM-SP1), a putative novel processing enzyme originally isolated from porcine pituitary anterior and neurointermediate lobes. On larger substrates, chromogranin A is a reversible competitive inhibitor of the cleavage at pairs of basic amino acids by IRCM-SP1. The substrates tested included pituitary ACTH and adrenal medulla pro-enkephalin-derived peptides such as the 8.6 kDa synenkephalin-containing precursor and peptide B. Chromogranin A is itself selectively processed by IRCM-SP1, and ACTH was shown to compete for such cleavage. These data suggest that chromogranins as a class of acidic proteins could participate in the tissue-specific processing of pro-hormones.
