Abstract excerpt
A novel prolyl endopeptidase from Stenotrophomonas maltophilia, SmPEP, was discovered and characterized. The specific activity of the recombinant SmPEP expressed by Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3), was 68.3 U/mg at pH 8.0 and 37 °C. In order to improve the substrate specificity for long-chain peptide, rational design was applied based on the structure constructed by homology modeling. Inter-domain sites within the...
