Example sentences for: papain-like

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

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.
In the case of papain-like proteases - calpains, transglutaminases and NH 2 -acetyltransferases - the three-stranded sheet of the core is incorporated into β-barrel with five to eight constituent strands (Figure 2).
The observation that the three-stranded unit of the NlpC/P60 domain is followed by two other β-strands, suggests that the NlpC/P60 proteins are likely to form a five-stranded barrel similar to that seen in papain-like proteases (Figures 1, 2).
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).
