aureolysin is essential for activation of SspA zymogen, but the first step in processing of the N-terminal propeptide requires autocatalytic intramolecular cleavage at glutamine, aureolysin then processes at Leu58 and then Val69 to produce the first active molecules of mature SspA, which then feed back to promote efficient autocatalytic intermolecular processing of remaining zSspA at Glu65, mechanism, overview

the sigB mutant strain overexpresses the surface-anchored protein Bap, that is essential for biofilm formation in the model strain. Staphylococcus aureus completely inhibits the biofilm formation of the mutant strain via Aur and SspA, two proteases that are overexpressed in the sigB mutant strain and are capable of degrading Bap
metabolism
-
four major extracellular proteases of Staphylococcus aureus are potent complement inhibitors: cysteine proteases staphopain A and staphopain B, the serine protease V8, and the metalloproteinase aureolysin cause a drastic decrease in the haemolytic activity of serum, whereas two serine-protease like enzymes, SplD and SplE, have no effect. The four enzymes inhibit all pathways of complement due to the efficient degradation of several crucial components
