Abstract excerpt
In a proteasome-lacking mutant of Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2), an intracellular enzyme with chymotrypsin-like activity, absent from the wild type, was detected. Complementation that restored proteasome function did not suppress expression of the endopeptidase. Since the enzyme was not found in two other S. coelicolor proteasome mutants, its expression probably resulted from a secondary mutation arisen in the...
