CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF PORCINE CATHEPSIN H DETERMINED AT 2.1 ANGSTROM RESOLUTION: LOCATION OF THE MINI-CHAIN C-TERMINAL CARBOXYL GROUP DEFINES CATHEPSIN H AMINOPEPTIDASE FUNCTION
Overview
BACKGROUND: Cathepsin H is a lysosomal cysteine protease, involved in, intracellular protein degradation. It is the only known, mono-aminopeptidase in the papain-like family and is reported to be, involved in tumor metastasis. The cathepsin H structure was determined in, order to investigate the structural basis for its aminopeptidase activity, and thus to provide the basis for structure-based design of synthetic, inhibitors. RESULTS: The crystal structure of native porcine cathepsin H, was determined at 2.1 A resolution. The structure has the typical, papain-family fold. The so-called mini-chain, the octapeptide EPQNCSAT, is, attached via a disulfide bond to the body of the enzyme and bound in a, narrowed active-site cleft, in the substrate-binding direction. The, mini-chain fills the ... [(full description)]
