| Subcellular location: | Golgi apparatus, trans-Golgi network membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11331585, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11799113, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8846780, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9130696, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9412467}; Single-pass type I membrane protein {ECO:0000305}. Cell membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11799113, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9130696, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9412467}; Single-pass type I membrane protein {ECO:0000305}. Secreted {ECO:0000305|PubMed:11799113}. Endosome membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9412467}; Single-pass type I membrane protein {ECO:0000305}. Note=Shuttles between the trans-Golgi network and the cell surface (PubMed:9412467, PubMed:11799113). Propeptide cleavage is a prerequisite for exit of furin molecules out of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). A second cleavage within the propeptide occurs in the trans Golgi network (TGN), followed by the release of the propeptide and the activation of furin (PubMed:11799113). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11799113, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9412467}. | |
| Tissue specificity: | Seems to be expressed ubiquitously. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:1713771}. | |
| Domain: | Contains a cytoplasmic domain responsible for its TGN localization and recycling from the cell surface. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:8846780}. | |
| Ptm: | The inhibition peptide, which plays the role of an intramolecular chaperone, is autocatalytically removed in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and remains non-covalently bound to furin as a potent autoinhibitor. Following transport to the trans Golgi, a second cleavage within the inhibition propeptide results in propeptide dissociation and furin activation. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:1629222, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9130696}. | |
| Ptm: | Phosphorylation is required for TGN localization of the endoprotease. In vivo, exists as di-, mono- and non-phosphorylated forms. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:8846780}. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the peptidase S8 family. Furin subfamily. {ECO:0000305}. | |
