1.All proteases use water to cut their respective proteins, and enzymes in the aspartyl protease family employ a pair of aspartic acids to activate a water molecule for this purpose.
2.Sequence analysis and alignment showed significant homologies with the correlated parasite cysteine proteinases, and the Cys, His and Asn residues that formed catalytic triad were of high conservation.
3.Sequence analysis and alignment showed significant homologies with the correlated parasite cysteine proteinases and conservation of Cys,His and Asn residues that form a catalytic triad.
5.The deduced 410 amino acid of CTSD was predicted to contain an Asn(Asparagine) domain which was the representative structure of lysosomal aspartic proteinase by blast in NCBI,and three-dimentional structure of porcine CTSD showed 99.7% alignment to that of mammalian CTSD.
