GP63 general gene features. The scheme highlights conserved elements found on most GP63 sequences, such as the signal peptide, propeptide, zinc-binding motif [8], multiple cysteine residues, the GPI anchor site and a nearly universally conserved motif of seven consecutive amino acids we named KDELMAP. The PCR strategy used to amplify the GP63 genes is also shown with products varying from 1 Kb (up to the KDELMAP region) and 1,6 Kb (finishing on the GPI anchor site)
