Function
[PRSS8_HUMAN] Possesses a trypsin-like cleavage specificity with a preference for poly-basic substrates. Stimulates epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) activity through activating cleavage of the gamma subunits (SCNN1G).[1] [2]

Publication Abstract from PubMed
Structure-based design was utilized to guide the early stage optimization of a substrate-like inhibitor to afford potent peptidomimetic inhibitors of the channel-activating protease prostasin. The first X-ray crystal structures of prostasin with small molecule inhibitors bound to the active site are also reported.
