LITERATURE
sitting drop vapor diffusion, crystal structure of an activation intermediate of cathepsin E at 2.35 A resolution. The overall structure follows the general fold of aspartic proteases of the A1 family, and the intermediate shares many features with the intermediate 2 on the proposed activation pathway of aspartic proteases like pepsin C and cathepsin D. The pro-sequence is cleaved from the protease and remains stably associated with the mature enzyme by forming the outermost sixth strand of the interdomain beta-sheet
