CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF THE ZYMOGEN FORM OF STREPTOCOCCAL PYROGENIC EXOTOXIN B ACTIVE SITE (C47S) MUTANTCRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF THE ZYMOGEN FORM OF STREPTOCOCCAL PYROGENIC EXOTOXIN B ACTIVE SITE (C47S) MUTANT
Structural highlights
FunctionSPEB_STRPY Important streptococcal virulence factor which cleaves human fibronectin and degrades vitronectin. Also cleaves human IL1B precursor to form biologically active IL1B. Can induce apoptosis in human monocytes and epithelial cells in vitro, and reduces phagocytic activity in monocytic cells. Thus, may play a role in bacterial colonization, invasion, and inhibition of wound healing.[1] Evolutionary Conservation![]() Check, as determined by ConSurfDB.
