How can you use “peptidases” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
We present a detailed evolutionary and structural analysis of the NlpC/P60 superfamily of peptidases.
All characterized members of this family are peptidases, and they either hydrolyze the D-γ-glutamyl-meso-diaminopimelate linkage or N -acetylmuramate- L-alanine linkage [ 19, 25].
These include the SBHM of the phosphotransferase system enzyme II (glucose permease or PTS-EII) found in several lineages of free-living bacteria, the one at the C-termini of cytochrome F from cyanobacteria and chloroplasts, and the NlpD-like cell wall peptidases that are present in most bacteria.
Some well studied examples of these peptidases include Zn-dependent peptidases of the Hedgehog carboxy-terminal domain fold and the DD-peptidases with a PAS domain-like fold [ 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17].
In the NlpC/P60 domains of the AcmB-like divergent group and the circularly permuted YaeF-like and poxviral groups, this residue is an acidic residue, as in most other thiol peptidases (Figure 1).
