Deletion of the sulfate groups of Tyr- 67 and Tyr-69 resulted in compounds with respectively 0.6% and 4% of the activity.PTM:PSK-alpha is produced by endopeptidase digestion. PSK-beta is produced from PSK-alpha by exopeptidase digestion.MISCELLANEOUS:The N-terminal tripeptide (YIY) is the active core.SIMILARITY:Belongs to the phytosulfokine family."
