Acid Proteases:Structure, Function and Biology
In the past ten years, a number of proceedings of symposia on the structure and function of proteolytic enzymes have been published. Their coverage of acid proteases has been limited, mainly due to the lack of significant new information on the structure of these enzymes. In the last four years, however, the primary and tertiary structures of a number of acid proteases have been determined, prompting the need to discuss the meanings of the old data and the possibilities for new experimentations. It was for this purpose that this book was organized. It took place at the University of Oklahoma on November 21-24, 1976. This book is a collection of the main lectures delivered at the Conference. Acid Proteases, by definition refers to a group of proteases having an optimal pH in acidic solutions. The classic examples are pepsin and chymosin. Some catalytic features are obviously shared by...
