Abstract excerpt
Pleurotus ostreatus proteinase A inhibitor 1 (POIA1), which is composed of 76 residues without disulfide bridges, is a unique inhibitor in that it exhibits sequence similarity to the propeptides of subtilisins. In order to elucidate the inhibitory mechanism of POIA1, we constructed an expression system for a synthetic POIA1 gene. The wild-type POIA1 was found to inhibit subtilisin BPN' with an inhibitor constant...
