Background: CLN2, also known as Tripeptidyl peptidase I (TTP-I), a member of the family of serine-carboxyl proteinases (S53), plays a crucial role in lysosomal protein degradation, and a deficiency in this enzyme leads to fatal neurodegenerative disease. CLN2 is a lysosomal aminopeptidase that sequentially removes tripeptides from small polypeptides and also shows a minor endoprotease activity. In lysosomes, CLN2 proenzyme is converted into a mature enzyme with the assistance of another protease and is able to autoactivate in acidic pH in vitro via an unimolecular mechanism.
