Caught in the Act: The Crystal Structure of cleaved Cathepsin L bound to the active site of Cathepsin L

Released:

Function and Biology Details

Reaction catalysed:
Similar to that of papain. As compared to cathepsin B, cathepsin L exhibits higher activity toward protein substrates, but has little activity on Z-Arg-Arg-NHMec, and no peptidyl-dipeptidase activity.
