Abstract excerpt
Streptomyces griseus protease B (SGPB) has primary specificity for large hydrophobic residues. The protease is secreted in a promature form, and autocatalytic removal of the propeptide is essential for activity. We genetically substituted the P1 Leu at the promature junction of SGPB with Phe, Met, or Val and monitored expression levels in Escherichia coli. Substitution with Phe had no effect on active SGPB...
