RCN3 belongs to the CREC family which contains multiple EF-hand Ca2+-binding proteins localized to the secretory pathway. RCN3 sequence is characterized by the presence of five Arg-Xaa-Xaa-Arg motifs; which represents the target sequence of subtilisin-like proprotein convertases(SPCs). SPCs are a family of seven structurally related serine endoproteases that are involved in the proteolytic activation of proproteins.RCN3 is transiently associated with proPACE4; but not with mature PACE4. Inhibition of PACE4 maturation by a Ca2+ ionophore resulted in accumulation of the proPACE4-RCN-3 complex in cells. It has been proposed that elective and transient association of RCN3 with the precursor of PACE4 plays an important role in the biosynthesis of PACE4.
