Pepstatin-Insensitive Carboxyl Proteinases

  • Chapter
Structure and Function of the Aspartic Proteinases

Part of the book series: Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology ((AEMB,volume 306))

Abstract

In 1960, when B. S. Hartley1 classified proteinases based on the catalytic residue, no information was available concerning the catalytic residue of acid proteinases. The term “acid proteinase” was, therefore, given to the group of proteinases having an optimum pH in the acid region.
