OverviewOverview

SGAP is an aminopeptidase present in the extracellular fluid of, Streptomyces griseus cultures. It is a double-zinc enzyme with a strong, preference for large hydrophobic amino-terminus residues. It is a, monomeric (30 kDa) heat-stable enzyme, with a high and efficient catalytic, activity modulated by calcium ions. The small size, high activity and heat, stability make SGAP a very attractive enzyme for various biotechnological, applications. Only one other related aminopeptidase (Aeromonas, proteolytica AP; AAP) has been structurally analyzed to date and its, structure was shown to be considerably similar to SGAP, despite the low, sequence homology between the two enzymes. The motivation for the detailed, structural analysis of SGAP originated from a strong mechanistic interest, in the ... [(full description)]
