additional information | construction of pro-enzyme derivatives lacking the Ca1 ion (Pro-TKS/DELTACa1), Ca6 ion (Pro-TKS/DELTACa6), and Ca7 ion (Pro-TKS/DELTACa7), and their active site mutants, Pro-S324A/DELTACa1, Pro-S324A/DELTACa6, and Pro-S324A/DELTACa7, respectively. Mutants Pro-TKS/DELTACa6 and Pro-TKS/DELTACa7 fully mature into their active forms upon incubation at 80°C for 30 min like the wild-type enzyme. In contrast, mutant Pro-TKS/DELTACa1 matures poorly at 80°C because of the instability of its mature domain. Refolding rates of all Pro-S324A derivatives are comparable to that of Pro-S324A (active site mutant of wild-type pro-enzyme), indicating that these Ca(2+) ions are not needed for folding of Tk-subtilisin | Thermococcus kodakarensis |
