Transforming growth factor-␣ (TGF-␣) is synthesized as a membrane-bound precursor protein, pro-TGF-␣, that is converted to a soluble form by 2 endoproteolytic cleavages. Several factors have been implicated in the regulation of the second rate-limiting step, including protein kinase C (PKC). Earlier
