Lysosomal Cysteine and Aspartic Proteases

Secreted fungal aspartic proteases: A review.

The aspartic proteases, also called aspartyl and aspartate proteases or acid proteases (E.C.3.4.23), belong to the endopeptidase family and are characterized by the conserved sequence Asp-Gly-Thr at the active site. These enzymes are found in a wide variety of microorganisms in which they perform important functions related to nutrition and pathogenesis. In addition, their high activity and sta...

Aspartic Proteases from Basidiomycete Clitocybe nebularis

We have isolated aspartic proteases by affinity chromatography from wild growing basidiomycete Clitocybe nebularis. Pepstatin A sensitive fractions from size exclusion chromatography were subjected to Concanavalin A affinity chromatography. N-terminal sequences of the three bands resolved on SDS-PAGE showed sequence similarity to the A01.018 group of family A1 aspartic proteases of the MEROPS c...
