Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Most of the proteases classified into the M23 family in the MEROPS database exhibit staphylolytic activity and have potential as antibacterial agents. The M23 family is further classified into two subfamilies, M23A and M23B. Proteases of the M23A subfamily are thought to lack the capacity for self-maturation by auto-processing of a propeptide, which has been a challenge in heterologous production and...
