Abstract excerpt
The amino-terminal propeptide, consisting of 77 amino acid residues, is known to be required as an intramolecular chaperone to guide the folding of mature subtilisin E, a serine protease, into active mature enzyme. Many mutations within the pro-sequence have been shown to abolish the production of active subtilisin E (Kobayashi, T., and Inouye, M. (1992) J. Mol. Biol. 226, 931-933). Here we report...
