Biologic activity in a fragment of recombinant human interferon α [PDF]
, 1984 To attempt to locate functionally important regions of the interferon (IFN) molecule, recombinant human IFN-α2 was subjected to proteolytic digestion. The bacterial proteinase thermolysin produced two major complementary fragments, HuIFN-α2-(1-110) and ...

Structural basis for recruitment of peptidoglycan endopeptidase MepS by lipoprotein NlpI
Nature CommunicationsPeptidoglycan (PG) sacculi surround the cytoplasmic membrane, maintaining cell integrity by withstanding internal turgor pressure. During cell growth, PG endopeptidases cleave the crosslinks of the fully closed sacculi, allowing for the incorporation of ...
