Protein Structure
Enzymatic cleavage for protein determination
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Trypsin | Lysine (K), Arginine (R) - C terminus |
| Chymotrypsin | Tyrosine (Y), Tryptophan (W), Phenylalanine (F), Leucine (L ) - C terminus |
| Thermolysin | Isoleucine (I), Valine (V) - N terminus |
| Pepsin | Tyrosine (Y), Tryptophan (W), Phenylalanine (F), others - N terminus |
| Staph. aureus (V8 Protease) | Glutamate (E), Asparatate (D) - C terminus |
| Myobacter protease | Lysine (K) - N terminus |
| Papain | Arginine (R), Lysine (K) - fast C terminus; Glutamic acid (Q), Histidine (H), Glycine (G), Tyrosine (Y) - slow C terminus |
| Subtilism | Glutamine (Q), Serine (S), Leucine (L), Tyrosine (Y), Phenylalanine (F) - C terminus |
| Pronase | Many |
| Lys C | Lysine (K) - C terminus |
| Arg C | Arginine (R) - C terminus |
| Carboxypeptidase A | Non-polar residues |
| Carboxypeptidase B | Lysine (K) and Arginine (R) |
| Carboxypeptidase C | All residues at different rates |
| Carboxypeptidase Y | Hydrophobic (faster), hydrophilic (slower) |
| Dipeptidyl aminopeptidase | Dipeptides |
| Leucine aminopeptidase | Preferentially hydrophobic |
| Aminopeptidase M | Broader specificity |
| Met-X | Cyanogen Bromide |
| Arg-X | Trypsin (also cleaves lysine) |
| Glu(E)-X | S. aureus V8 protease (also cleaves Asp (D)) |
| Try(W)-X | BNPS |
| Lys(K)-X | Endo Lys C Protease |
| Arg(R)-X | Endo Arg C Protease |
| Asp(D)-Pro(P) | Weak acid, takes days |
| Asn(N)-Gly(G) | Hydroxylamine |
| Hydrophobic | Chymotrypsin, Pepsin, Thermolysin, Subtilisin, Papain |
