Description for Proteases: Structure and Function
Paperback. Proteolysis is an irreversible posttranslational modification affecting each and every protein, from its biosynthesis to its degradation. This volume explores both the structure and function of proteases. Editor(s): Brix, Klaudia; Stocker, Walter. Num Pages: 576 pages, 33 black & white illustrations, 65 colour illustrations, biography. BIC Classification: PSBC; PSBZ. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 30. Weight in Grams: 872.
Proteolysis is an irreversible posttranslational modification affecting each and every protein from its biosynthesis to its degradation. Limited proteolysis regulates targeting and activity throughout the lifetime of proteins. Balancing proteolysis is therefore crucial for physiological homeostasis. Control mechanisms include proteolytic maturation of zymogens resulting in active proteases and the shut down of proteolysis by counteracting endogenous protease inhibitors. Beyond the protein level, proteolytic enzymes are involved in key decisions during development that determine life and death – from single cells to adult individuals. In particular, we are becoming aware of the subtle role that proteases play in signaling events within ... Read more
