Processing of human toll-like receptor 7 by furin-like proprotein convertases is required for its accumulation and activity in endosomes.
Toll-like receptor 7 (TLR7) triggers antiviral immune responses by recognizing viral single-stranded RNA in endosomes, but the biosynthetic pathway of human TLR7 (hTLR7) remains unclear. Here, we show that hTLR7 is proteolytically processed and that the C-terminal fragment selectively accumulates in...
