4itc
From Proteopedia
Crystal Structure Analysis of the K1 Cleaved Adhesin domain of Lys-gingipain (Kgp) from Porphyromonas gingivalis W83
Function
[KGP83_PORGN] Cysteine proteinase with a strong preference for substrates with Lys in the P1 position. Hydrolyzes bovine hemoglobin, bovine serum albumin, casein, human placental type I collagen and human IgA and IgG. Disrupts the functions of polymorphonuclear leukocytes. May act as a virulence factor in the development of peridontal disease. Involved in the coaggregation of P.gingivalis with other oral bacteria (By similarity).[UniProtKB:B2RLK2]
