3.4.22.10 proteolytic modification SPE B produced from group A Streptococcus (GAS) is released extracellularly to culture medium as a zymogen (proSPE B) with a molecular mass of 40 kDa. The conversion of proSPE B to the 28 kDa active mature SPE B (mSPE B) is achieved by autoproteolysis and exogenous proteases 698880 3.4.22.10 proteolytic modification Spe is expressed as a propeptide. Zinc blocks the maturation of the SpeB zymogen and thereby the proteolytic degradation of proteins by SpeB 733967 3.4.22.10 proteolytic modification SpeB is secreted as a 40000 Da proenzyme that is converted into a mature 28000 Da active proteinase by autocatalytic cleavage 650988 3.4.22.10 proteolytic modification streptopain is initially expressed as a 40 kDa zymogen. Maturation is caused by cleavage of the 138 N-terminal amino acids, resulting in a 28000 active protease 755296 3.4.22.10 proteolytic modification the enzyme performs autolytic processing to the 28 kDa mature protein, the 12 kDa pro-sequence domain, residues 28-145, directs the folding of the mature enzyme, overview 667311 3.4.22.10 proteolytic modification the enzyme performs autolytic processing to the mature 28 kDa protein by removal of an about 117 amino-acid peptide from the N-terminus -, 667426, 668772, 668911 3.4.22.10 side-chain modification - 81451, 81464 3.4.22.10 side-chain modification autocatalytic maturation of the zymogen proceeds through the sequential appearance of at least six intermediates, resulting from cleavage after Lys26, Asn41, Lys101, Ala112 and Lys118 -, 81453 3.4.22.10 side-chain modification autocatalytic processing of the 40000 Da zymogen to the 28000 Da mature form 81463 3.4.22.10 side-chain modification complete removal of the 118 amino acids from the SCP zymogen results in formation of SCP 81456
