Example sentences for: peptidases
How can you use “peptidases” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
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).
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].
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].
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].
We show that this superfamily, in addition to the well characterized P60-related peptidoglycan peptidases, includes divergent cell-wall hydrolases typified by AcmB/LytN, eukaryotic proteins such as LRAT, Egl-26 and their relatives, amidase domains of GSPSs, and several other uncharacterized bacterial proteins.
