FunctionFunction

Subtilisin is a serine protease. A 77 amino acid propeptide is cleaved from the N-terminus of pro-Sub to create the mature active enzym[1]. See detalis in User:Tommie Hata/Introduction to Protein Engineering-Subtilisin.

  • Selenosubtilisin is a semisynthetic selenoenzyme produced by chemical modification of subtilisin[2].
  • Savinase is a subtilisin produced from a lentil[3].

RelevanceRelevance

Subtilisin is widely used commercially in detergents.
