Abstract excerpt
The human aspartic proteinases include pepsinogen A, pepsinogen C, cathepsin D, cathepsin E and renin. Comparative analysis of the proteinase genes reveals a high degree of similarity with regard to their respective coding sequences and the location of exon-intron junctions. Despite strong conservation of the regions containing the active site aspartyl groups, genetic polymorphisms have been identified for each...
