| PRO name | presepsin (human) |
| Synonyms | | PRO-Short-label: | EXACT: | hPSEP | | Other: | EXACT: | P-SEP (human) | PSEP (human) | sCD14-ST (human) | soluble CD14 subtype (human) | soluble cluster of differentiation 14 subtype (human) |
|
| Definition | "A CD14 molecule, signal peptide removed form that has been cleaved by plasma proteases to yield a soluble 13kD N-terminal fragment in human." [PMID:16258819, PMID:21740312, PMID:25215141, PRO:DAN] |
| Comment | Note: The cleavage position indicated in [PMID:21740312] is based on a synthetic construct; the true point of cleavage is unknown. It is believed that presepsin is derived from a membrane-bound precursor as opposed to a secreted form [PMID:16258819]. |
