==PROPLASMEPSIN II FROM PLASMODIUM FALCIPARUM==
-
Proplasmepsin II is the zymogen of plasmepsin II, an aspartic proteinase, used by Plasmodiumfalciparum to digest hemoglobin during the blood stage, of malaria. A large shift between the N-domain and the central and, C-domains of proplasmepsin II opens the active site cleft, preventing the, formation of a functional aspartic proteinase active site. This mode of, inhibition of catalytic activity has not been observed in any other, aspartic proteinase zymogen. Instead of occluding a pre-formed active, site, as in the gastric aspartic proteinase zymogens, the prosegment of, proplasmepsin II interacts extensively with the C-domain and serves as a, 'harness' to keep the domains apart. Disruption of key salt bridges at low, pH may be important in activation.

== Function ==
 +
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/PLM2_PLAFX PLM2_PLAFX] During the asexual blood stage, participates in initial cleavage of native host hemoglobin (Hb) resulting in Hb denaturation (PubMed:8844673, PubMed:11782538, PubMed:15574427). May cleave preferentially denatured hemoglobin that has been cleaved by PMI (PubMed:8844673). Digestion of host Hb is an essential step which provides the parasite with amino acids for protein synthesis, and regulates osmolarity (Probable).<ref>PMID:11782538</ref> <ref>PMID:15574427</ref> <ref>PMID:8844673</ref>
