Cloned(Commentary)

Cloned (Comment) Organism
full-length propeptide of cruzipain is cloned by PCR and expressed in Escherichia coli as a fusion protein with a 6xHis tag at the N-terminus Trypanosoma cruzi

Inhibitors

Inhibitors Comment Organism Structure
propeptide of cruzipain PCZ, is also a good inhibitor of brucipain from Trypanosoma brucei. The propeptide of cruzipain does not inhibit human cathepsins S, K or B or papain at the tested concentrations, and moderately inhibits human cathepsin V. Human cathepsin F is very efficiently inhibited (Ki of 32 picomol/L) Trypanosoma cruzi
