LITERATURE
no glycoprotein
-
no N-glycosylation
proteolytic modification
-
the recombinant enzyme needs to be refolded and processed from the inactive precursor, ppEhCP112, to a 35.5 kDa mature and active enzyme, EhCP112. The thiol specific inhibitor E-64, but not serine or aspartic proteinase inhibitors arrests this activation process
additional information
-
processing of the inactive pro-enzyme to the mature active form by treatment with 10 mM DTT and 0.04% SDS at 37°C and pH 8.8, SDS can be substituted by Triton X-100 and octylglucoside but these are 3fold less efficient
