Abstract excerpt
Pro-Tk-SP from Thermococcus kodakaraensis consists of the four domains: N-propeptide, subtilisin (EC 3.4.21.62) domain, β-jelly roll domain and C-propeptide. To analyze the maturation process of this protein, the Pro-Tk-SP derivative with the mutation of the active-site serine residue to Cys (Pro-Tk-S359C), Pro-Tk-S359C derivatives lacking the N-propeptide (ProC-Tk-S359C) and both propeptides (Tk-S359C), and a...
