Word Map on EC 3.4.22.1

Reaction

Hydrolysis of proteins with broad specificity for peptide bonds. Preferentially cleaves -Arg-Arg-/- bonds in small molecule substrates (thus differing from cathepsin L). In addition to being an endopeptidase, shows peptidyl-dipeptidase activity, liberating C-terminal dipeptides =

inhibition of cathepsin B greatly improves the developmental competence of bovine oocytes and increases the number of high-quality embryos

food industry
the gel strength of modori gel is increased by suppression of cathepsin B activity using CA-074. Cathepsin B may cause modori phenomenon. Therefore, our results suggest that natural cysteine protease inhibitor, such as oryzacystatin derived from rice may apply to surimi-based product processing of horse mackerel to improve the quality of thermal gels
