Function of your Protein

My protein helps with seed maturation and plant programmed cell death. .

Biological relevance and broader implications

6YSA is found in plants called, Arabidopsis thaliana. 6YSA is important because it's dual protease and ligase activity. These enzymes have become biotechnical interest. Their dual protease and ligase activites are still not well known about today. That this particular protein is heavily researched today.

Important amino acids

Important amino acids within this protein are asparagine, histidine, and cysteine. Most of the amino acids are bound together by hydrogen bonds.

Structural highlights

In the secondary structure, there are 10 alpha helices. . The tertiary structure contains Citric Acid (CIT) and Sulfate Ion (SO4). There are many Hydrophobic Parts with this protein. . Most of the protein is hydrophobic which is all the purple parts.

Other important features

There are two main autocatalytic cleavage sites, Asn333 and Asn345. Upon incubation at pH ,5.0, you can observe additional cleavage sites on the LSAM domain, including Asp363, Asp416, and Asp417. This is important because it initiates Proteolytic Activation. Meaning it's breaking down the proteins into smaller polypeptides or amino acids.
