How can you use “papain-like” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

The presence of an analogous situation in the transglutaminases [ 30, 45] and the related NH 2 -acyltransferases [ 46] suggests that diverse acetyl/acyltransferase activities have been repeatedly derived in course of the evolution of the papain-like fold.
The configuration, comprising a catalytic cysteine at the amino terminus of a helix packed against a core three-stranded β-sheet, with the second and third strands bearing the catalytic histidine and its orienting polar partner, is seen in the transglutaminases and a related class of amino-group acetyltransferases, papain-like proteases, adenoviral proteases and ubiquitin carboxy-terminal hydrolases [ 32, 38] (Figure 2).
A comparison of the predicted secondary structure for this superfamily with known peptidase folds revealed that these three residues show exactly the same arrangement as the catalytic triad of papain-like thiol peptidases.
However, in the NlpC/P60 domain, the distance between the helix bearing the catalytic cysteine and the core barrel is similar to that seen in the transglutaminases and NH 2 -aminotransferases, suggesting that it lacks the large insert that is seen in several papain-like proteases (Figure 2).
This suggests that despite the absence of significant sequence similarity, the NlpC/P60 domain is likely to contain a structural core corresponding to the classical papain-like protease fold (Figure 2).
