Abstract excerpt
Glutamyl endopeptidases (GEPs) are serine proteases belonging to the chymotrypsin structural family. Although the family as a whole has been described in detail, the molecular mechanism underlying strict substrate specificity of GEPs remains unclear. The most popular hypothesis attributes the key role in recognition of the charged substrates by GEPs to the conserved amino acid His213 (chymotrypsin numbering...
