Word Map on EC 3.4.23.B4

Reaction

the enzyme seems to have a preference for Val in P1' and Phe in P1. In contrast to the HIV-1 protease the feline immunodeficiency virus protease does not cleave the peptide KSGVFVQNGLVK at the Phe-Val bond. Gln in P2' may be inhibitory. In contrast to HIV-1 protease the feline immunodeficiency virus protease does not cleave peptide KSGNFVVNGLVK at the Phe-Val bond. Asn in P2 may be inhibitory =

PR is an important target for antiviral therapies since PR is reponsible for the processing of viral Gag and Gag-Pol polyproteins into individual structural and enzymatic proteins during assembly and maturation. This proteolytic step is highly specific, ordered and essential for producing mature and infectious retrovirus particles
