Posttranslational Modification

Posttranslational Modification Comment Organism
proteolytic modification processing of PM4 into a mature enzyme occurrs through autocatalytic activity under acidic conditions in a pepstatin A-sensitive manner, in which process a portion of prodomain is essential for correct folding. Cysteine proteases vivapain-2 and vivapain-3 mediate the processing of PvPM4 into a mature enzyme Plasmodium vivax

Renatured (Commentary)

Renatured (Comment) Organism
bacterially expressed recombinant PvPM4 is insoluble, but it is easily refolded into a soluble protein Plasmodium vivax
