Furthermore, the level of secretion of Ala25Ser cystatin C by RPE cells is intermediary between wild type and variant B cystatin C. Ala25Ser precursor cystatin C thus represents a biochemical intermediate between the wild type and the AMD-associated cystatin C and as such, is a novel tool for the investigation of the mechanism of intracellular mis-localisation of variant B cystatin C. Our findings further support the hypothesis that substitution of the alanine residue in the penultimate position of precursor cystatin C signal sequence with a less hydrophobic amino acid residue, such as threonine (as in variant B cystatin C) or serine is sufficient to impair the intracellular trafficking and processing of the protein.].
