The demonstration that AcSDKP, a new regulator of the hematopoietic system, is formed in the bone marrow by a one-step enzymatic maturation processing of thymosin beta 4 (
T beta 4
) is presented. AcSDKP and
T beta 4
were both detected in bone marrow cells (BMC). Incubation of [3H]
T beta 4
with either intact or lysed BMC led to the formation of [3H]AcSDKP, whereas the labeled tetrapeptide was not degraded under these conditions. Model enzymatic degradation of
T beta 4
carried out with bacterial enzymes suggests that a mammalian endoproteinase Asp-N might be involved in the formation of AcSDKP through the specific cleavage of the Pro4-Asp5 peptidic bond of
T beta 4
. In contrast, alpha-prolyl-
endopeptidase
was ineffective in carrying out a similar processing.
