Abstract excerpt
To investigate the substrate recognition mechanism of trypsin-like protease cocoonase (CCN), mutational analyses were conducted at key substrate recognition sites, Asp187 and Ser188, and their effects on substrate specificity and enzymatic activity were evaluated. Mutants with the Asp187 substitution exhibited a significant reduction in catalytic activity compared with the wild-type enzyme, whereas the Ser188...
