description | The cysteine-rich domain (CRD) is an essential component of corin, a type II transmembrane serine protease which functions as the convertase of the pro-atrial natriuretic peptide (pro-ANP) in the heart []. Corin contains two CRDs in its extracellular region, which play an important role in recognition of the physiological substrate, pro-ANP. This entry represents the first (N-terminal) CRD []. |
