The protein being studied in this article is KGP. This cysteine peptidase is a major virulence factor for the periodontopathogen Porphyromonas gingivalis. KGP works by cleaving many constituents of human connective tissue which leads to decreased bacterial activity and chronic inflammation in the gums. It contains a catalytic triad of cysteine histidine and aspartic acid. The histidine and aspartic acid residues in the catalytic triad use acid base chemistry catalysis to form a covalent intermediate with the cysteine. The intermediate formed is L-lysinylmethyl which is found in the specificity pocket. <scene name='79/799598/Cartoon_view_of_kgp/1'>Text To Be Displayed</scene>

This Sandbox is Reserved from October 22, 2018 through April 30, 2019 for use in the course Biochemistry taught by Bonnie Hall at the Grand View University, Des Moines, IA USA. This reservation includes Sandbox Reserved 1456 through Sandbox Reserved 1470.
To get started:
  • Click the edit this page tab at the top. Save the page after each step, then edit it again.
  • Click the 3D button (when editing, above the wikitext box) to insert Jmol.
  • show the Scene authoring tools, create a molecular scene, and save it. Copy the green link into the page.
  • Add a description of your scene. Use the buttons above the wikitext box for bold, italics, links, headlines, etc.
