Application

Application Comment Organism
additional information C-terminal pro sequence of the enzyme functions as an intramolecular chaperone that stabilizes the partially unfolded structure of the protease domain, and thereby facilitates its secretion Thermus aquaticus

Cloned(Commentary)

Cloned (Comment) Organism
expression in Escherichia coli and Thermus thermophilus Thermus aquaticus

Inhibitors

Inhibitors Comment Organism Structure
DFP strongly inhibits Thermus aquaticus
N-terminal propeptide of aqualisin I potent inhibitor Thermus aquaticus
Streptomyces subtilisin inhibitor strongly inhibits Thermus aquaticus
Z-Ala-Gly-Phe-CH2Cl strongly inhibits Thermus aquaticus

Metals/Ions

Metals/Ions Comment Organism Structure
Ca2+ stabilizes, at least two Ca2+-binding sites, i. e. stronger and weaker binding sites, weaker binding site essential for heat stability of the enzyme, Ca2+ bound to the stronger binding site is hardly removed with EDTA Thermus aquaticus
La3+ stabilizes Thermus aquaticus
Nd3+ stabilizes Thermus aquaticus
Sr2+ stabilizes Thermus aquaticus
Tb3+ stabilizes Thermus aquaticus
