Additional information

Subcellular localisation is seed specific and restricted to developing seeds at 7 days after anthesis, Delta-VPE is detected at lower levels in flowers siliques, specifically in seed coats

Description

Delta-VPE (cavitation processing enzyme Delta-isoenzyme) is a asparagine-specific endopeptidase that may be involved in processing proteins that target cavitation (through similarity). This enzyme may be involved in post-translational proteolysis of seed storage proteins in developing seed storage protein vacuoles (PubMed:12417707, PubMed:14688293). It showed caspase-1-like activity in extracellular particles. During the early stages of seed development, the seed coat is formed by modulating cell death within specific cell layers (Nakaune et al. 2005).
