Crystal Structure Analysis of the K3 Cleaved Adhesin Domain of Lys-gingipain (Kgp) from Porphyromonas gingivalis w83
Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 021812842
Function
[O52050_PORGI] 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]
