Neprosin belongs to a new family of glutamic peptidase based on <i>in silico</i> evidence

2022-02-25

Abstract excerpt

Neprosin was first discovered in the insectivorous tropical pitcher plants of Nepenthes species as a novel protease with prolyl endopeptidase (PEP) activity. Neprosin has two uncharacterized domains of neprosin activation peptide and neprosin. A previous study has shown neprosin activity in hydrolyzing proline-rich gliadin, a gluten component that triggers celiac disease. In this study, we performed in silico st...
