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

The phylogenetic relationship we demonstrate between the LRAT family of enzymes and thiol peptidases shows that this catalytic triad was derived only once in evolution and re-used for different mechanistically similar reactions such as acyl transfer, transacylation or peptide-bond hydrolysis.
By analogy with all other thiol proteases, in the NlpC/P60 superfamily peptidases the cysteine would act as the nucleophile that attacks the peptide bond, while the histidine acts in sequential steps as the base and then acid catalyst for the proton transfers [ 37].
While there is no directly detectable sequence similarity between the NlpC/P60 proteins and other superfamilies of peptidases, the arrangement of catalytic residues, with respect to the conserved secondary elements, in this superfamily is the same as that in several other peptidase superfamilies (Figure 2).
Even the closest relatives of the GSPSs, namely MM2478 and CAC1526, are secreted proteins that are likely to function as extracellular peptidases.
Such substitutions have previously been observed in other papain-like peptidases with the serine participating in a functional active site [ 61, 62].
