ENZYME entry: EC 3.4.22.46

PURL: https://purl.expasy.org/enzyme/EC/3.4.22.46
Accepted Name
L-peptidase
Reaction catalysed
Autocatalytically cleaves itself from the polyprotein of the foot-and-mouth disease virus by hydrolysis of a Lys-|-Gly bond, but then cleaves host cell initiation factor eIF-4G at bonds -Gly-|-Arg- and -Lys-|-Arg-
Comment(s)
  • Best known from foot-and-mouth disease virus, but occurs in other aphthoviruses and cardioviruses.
  • Destruction of initiation factor eIF-4G has the effect of shutting off host-cell protein synthesis while allowing synthesis of viral proteins to continue.
  • The tertiary structure reveals a distant relationship to papain and, consistent with this, compound E-64 is inhibitory.
  • Belongs to peptidase family C28.
