This enzyme, derived from the house dust mite, is a major component of the allergic immune response [2]. The substrate specificity of this enzyme is not altogether clear. It cleaves the low-affinity IgE receptor CD23 at Glu298©àSer299?and Ser155©àSer156?[1]. It also cleaves the pulmonary structural proteins occludin and claudin at Leu©àLeu, Asp©àLeu and at Gly©àThr bonds [1,2]. It can also cleave the ¦Á subunit of the interleukin-2 (IL-2) receptor (CD25) [4]. Using a positional scanning combinatorial library, it was found that the major substrate-specificity determinant is for Ala in the P2 position [3]. The enzyme shows only a slight preference for basic amino acids in the P1 and P3 positions and a preference for aliphatic amino acids such as Ile, Pro, Val, Leu and norleucine in the P4 position [3]. Belongs in peptidase family?C1A. |
