==ACTIVATION INTERMEDIATE 2 OF HUMAN GASTRICSIN FROM HUMAN STOMACH==
-
The crystal structure of an activation intermediate of human gastricsin, has been determined at 2.4 A resolution. The human digestive enzyme, gastricsin (pepsin C) is an aspartic proteinase that is synthesized as the, inactive precursor (zymogen) progastricsin (pepsinogen C or hPGC). In the, zymogen, a positively-charged N-terminal prosegment of 43 residues (Ala, 1p-Leu 43p; the suffix 'p' refers to the prosegment) sterically prevents, the approach of a substrate to the active site. Zymogen conversion occurs, in an autocatalytic and stepwise fashion at low pH through the formation, of intermediates. The structure of the non-covalent complex of a, partially-cleaved peptide of the prosegment (Ala 1p-Phe 26p) with mature, gastricsin (Ser 1-Ala 329) suggests an activation pathway that may be, common to all gastric aspartic proteinases.

The crystal structure of an activation intermediate of human gastricsin has been determined at 2.4 A resolution. The human digestive enzyme gastricsin (pepsin C) is an aspartic proteinase that is synthesized as the inactive precursor (zymogen) progastricsin (pepsinogen C or hPGC). In the zymogen, a positively-charged N-terminal prosegment of 43 residues (Ala 1p-Leu 43p; the suffix 'p' refers to the prosegment) sterically prevents the approach of a substrate to the active site.

The structure of the non-covalent complex of a partially-cleaved peptide of the prosegment (Ala 1p-Phe 26p) with mature gastricsin (Ser 1-Ala 329) suggests an activation pathway that may be common to all gastric aspartic proteinases.
