Abstract excerpt
Molecular cloning of the gene and the crystal structure of the prolyl aminopeptidase [EC 3.4.11.5] from Serratia marcescens have been studied by us [J. Biochem. 122, 601-605 (1997); ibid. 126, 559-565 (1999)]. Through these studies, Phe139, Tyr149, Glu204, and Arg136 were estimated to be concerned with substrate recognition. To elucidate the details of the mechanism for the substrate specificity, the...
