additional information | the enzyme has a hemagglutininadhesin domain in the polypeptide region C-terminal to the catalytic domains, three-dimensional crystal structure of enzyme Kgp. The conserved acidic residue Asp388 may play a role in the catalytic mechanism. A chain of three welldefined water molecules that acts as H-bond acceptors in their interactions with the Nf of the lysine. The other end of this H-bonded chain of water molecules is in turn H-bonded to the backbone carbonyl oxygen of Asp516, structure-function analysis, overview | Porphyromonas gingivalis |
physiological function | gingipains, the principle virulence factors of Porphyromonas gingivalis are multidomain, cell-surface proteins containing a cysteine protease domain. The lysine specific gingipain, Kgp, is a critical virulence factor of Porphyromonas gingivalis | Porphyromonas gingivalis |
