We apologize for Proteopedia being slow to respond. For the past two years, a new implementation of Proteopedia has been being built. Soon, it will replace this 18-year old system. All existing content will be moved to the new system at a date that will be announced here.

Papain

Introduction

finds its origin from the latex of the papaya fruit and is classified as a sulfhydryl protease.

Structure of Papain (PDB entry 9PAP)

Drag the structure with the mouse to rotate


http://www.pdb.org/pdb/explore/explore.do?structureId=2PAD • Show the secondary structures. • Compare the distribution of polar residues to that of nonpolar residues. • Highlight the active site. • If you can find a PDB file of the enzyme that contains a pseudo-substrate (may be inhibitor), highlight it. • Show the contacts or attractions that are present between the pseudo-substrate and the protein, and if the enzyme has multiple subunits, show the contacts between the subunits. • Identify any other ligands that are present in the structure and the types of contacts that are present between them and the protein
