| cysteine proteinase inhibitors | Exogenous and endogenous compounds which inhibit cysteine proteinases. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| proteinase | <enzyme> An enzyme that cleaves protein at positions within the chain. Formally, the enzymes are peptidyl peptide hydrolases, more usually known as proteinases or proteolytic enzymes. (18 Nov 1997) |
| proteinase inhibitor inducing factor | See: PIIF. (18 Nov 1997) |
| Pseudomonas serine proteinase | <enzyme> Extracellular proteases I, II, III have role in infectious process of pseudomonas aeruginosa; included in the group of microbial serine proteinases EC 3.4.21.4 Registry number: EC 3.4.21.- Synonym: pseudomonas aeruginosa protease, pseudomonas alkaline protease (26 Jun 1999) |
| human a1-proteinase inhibitor | A glycoprotein that is the major protease inhibitor of human serum, is synthesised in the liver, and is genetically polymorphic due to the presence of over 20 alleles; individuals appropriately homozygous are deficient in a1-trypsin and are predisposed to pulmonary emphysema and juvenile hepatic cirrhosis because of alterations in the amino acid and sialic acid components of the glycoprotein. A1-Antitrypsin also inhibits thrombin. Synonym: a1-trypsin inhibitor, human a1-proteinase inhibitor. (05 Mar 2000) |
| serine proteinase inhibitors | Exogenous or endogenous compounds which inhibit serine proteinases. (12 Dec 1998) |
| SIV(mac) proteinase | <enzyme> From macaque simian immunodeficiency virus; has 80% homology with hiv protease Registry number: EC 3.4.23.- Synonym: siv mac proteinase, sivmac proteinase siv protease (26 Jun 1999) |
| snake proteinase | <enzyme> Amino acid sequence given in first source Registry number: EC 3.4.21.- Synonym: snake gene product, snake protein, snake protease (26 Jun 1999) |
| SP220K cell surface matrix proteinase | <enzyme> Inactive form has guanidinobenzoatase activity; active form has gelatinolytic activity Registry number: EC 3.4.21.- Synonym: sp220k enzyme (26 Jun 1999) |
| nsP2 proteinase | <enzyme> Papain-like proteinase from sindbis virus with processes polyprotein precursors; cys-481 and his-558 have been identified as the catalytic dyad Registry number: EC 3.4.22.- Synonym: nonstructural polyprotein 2 proteinase, nsp2 nonstructural proteinase, sindbis virus nsp2 proteinase, nsp2 protein, sindbis virus, nsp2 proteinase, semliki forest virus, sfv nsp2 proteinase (26 Jun 1999) |

| thiol proteinase | Proteases that have an active thiol group. Includes papain and ficin. (18 Nov 1997) |
| easter proteinase | <enzyme> Amino acid sequence of light chain from drosophila has high homology with light chain of tachypleus proclotting enzyme Registry number: EC 3.4.21.- Synonym: easter gene product (26 Jun 1999) |
| Endothia aspartic proteinase | <enzyme> Microbial aspartic proteinase (EC 3.4.23.6, formerly EC 3.4.23.10); from chestnut blight fungus endothia parasitica Registry number: EC 3.4.23.- Synonym: endothiapepsin (26 Jun 1999) |
