Microbial proteases and their applications
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023 Proteases (proteinases or peptidases) are a class of hydrolases that cleave peptide chains in proteins. Endopeptidases are a type of protease that hydrolyze the internal peptide bonds of proteins, forming shorter peptides; exopeptidases hydrolyze the ...

Current Protocols in Protein Science, 2000 AbstractThe processes of growth and remodeling of cells and tissues in multicellular organisms require the breakdown of old protein molecules, in concert with the synthesis of new ones. For example, many newly‐synthesized molecules require proteolytic processing to convert them to biologically active forms.
