Calpains in Cyanobacteria and the Origin of Calpains

2022-04-05

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Calpains are cysteine proteases involved in many cellular processes. They are an ancient and large superfamily of enzymes responsible for the cleavage and irreversible modification of a large variety of substrates. They have been intensively studied in humans and other mammals, but information about calpains in bacteria is scarce. Calpains have not been found among Archaea to date. In t...
