Figure 1 Schematics showing the maturation of mesothelin protein. The primary product of the full-ERC/mesothelin gene is a 71-kDa precursor protein. This protein is physiologically cleaved, releasing a 31-kDa fragment, N-ERC/mesothelin, into the blood. MPF: Megakaryocyte potentiating factor; SMRP: Soluble mesothelin-related peptide; GPI: Glycosylphosphatidylinositol.
