Elastase substrate specificity tailored through substrate-assisted catalysis and phage display.
The catalytic histidine of human neutrophil elastase was replaced with alanine (H57A) to determine if a substrate histidine could substitute for the missing catalytic group-'substrate-assisted catalysis'. H57A and wild-type elastase were recovered directly from Pichia pastoris following expression from a synthetic gene lacking the elastase pro sequence, thereby obviating the need for zymogen ac...
متن کاملTrypsin specificity increased through substrate-assisted catalysis.
Histidine 57 of the catalytic triad of trypsin was replaced with alanine to determine whether the resulting variant would be capable of substrate-assisted catalysis [Carter, P., & Wells, J. A. (1987) Science 237, 394-9]. A 2.5-fold increase in kcat/Km was observed on tri- or tetrapeptide substrates containing p-nitroanilide leaving groups and histidine at P2. In contrast, hydrolysis of peptide ...
متن کاملProbing ADAMTS13 Substrate Specificity using Phage Display
Von Willebrand factor (VWF) is a large, multimeric protein that regulates hemostasis by tethering platelets to the subendothelial matrix at sites of vascular damage. The procoagulant activity of plasma VWF correlates with the length of VWF multimers, which is proteolytically controlled by the metalloprotease ADAMTS13. To probe ADAMTS13 substrate specificity, we created phage display libraries c...
متن کاملThe importance of dynamics in substrate-assisted catalysis and specificity.
The QM/MM MD and free energy simulations show that the dynamics involving a His residue at the P1 site of the substrate may play an important role in substrate-assisted catalysis and specificity for a serine-carboxyl peptidase.
متن کاملFactor Xa active site substrate specificity with substrate phage display and computational molecular modeling.
Structural origin of substrate-enzyme recognition remains incompletely understood. In the model enzyme system of serine protease, canonical anti-parallel beta-structure substrate-enzyme complex is the predominant hypothesis for the substrate-enzyme interaction at the atomic level. We used factor Xa (fXa), a key serine protease of the coagulation system, as a model enzyme to test the canonical c...
