Purification and Characterization of Gingipains

Current Protocols in Protein Science, 2007
AbstractGingipains are cysteine proteases produced in large quantities by Porphyromonas gingivalis which together constitute important virulence factors in the pathogenesis of periodontal disease by that organism. Described is this unit is an efficient procedure for the purification of gingipains from the growth medium of P.

Porphyromonas gingivalis Gingipains Display Transpeptidation Activity

Journal of Proteome Research, 2018
Porphyromonas gingivalis is a keystone periodontal pathogen that has been associated with autoimmune disorders. The cell surface proteases Lys-gingipain (Kgp) and Arg-gingipains (RgpA and RgpB) are major virulence factors, and their proteolytic activity is enhanced by small peptides such as glycylglycine (GlyGly).

Generation of Lys-gingipain protease activity in Porphyromonas gingivalis W50 is independent of Arg-gingipain protease activities

Microbiology, 2000
Porphyromonas gingivalis, a black-pigmenting anaerobe implicated in the aetiology of periodontal disease, contains two loci, rgpA and rgpB, encoding the extracellular Arg-X specific proteases (RGPs, Arg-gingipains), and kgp, which encodes a Lys-X specific protease (KGP, Lys-gingipain).

A novel, potent dual inhibitor of Arg‐gingipains and Lys‐gingipain as a promising agent for periodontal disease therapy

The FASEB Journal, 2014
The periodontal pathogen Porphyromonas gingivalis produces a unique class of cysteine proteinases termed gingipains that comprises Arg‐gingipain (Rgp) and Lys‐gingipain (Kgp). Growing evidence indicates that these 2 types of gingipains synergistically contribute to the entire virulence of the
