Abstract excerpt
The serine protease (SSP) from a Gram-negative organism, Serratia marcescens, is excreted even from Escherichia coli. The protease is synthesized as a 1045-amino-acid precursor (preproSSP) composed of three functional portions, a typical NH2-terminal signal peptide of 27 amino acids, the mature protease part of 618 amino acids, and a large COOH-terminal part of 400 amino acids. After the mature part (Ala28 to...
