Blood clotting
Tumor growth
Bone remodeling
Etc…

Proteolytic enzymes are divided into
two different categories
• Limited proteolysis: a protease cleaves only one or a
limited number of peptide bonds of a target protein
leading to the activation or maturation of the formerly
inactive protein.
– e.g. conversion of prohormones to hormones.
• Unlimited proteolysis: in which proteins are degraded
into their amino acid constituents.
– Ubiquitin/proteasome pathway: First conjugated to multiple molecule of
the polypeptide ubiquitin. This modification marks them for rapid
hydrolysis by the proteasome in the presence of ATP.
– Lysosome pathway: Proteins are transferred into lysosomes which
contain proteases that completely digests the protein into the amino
acids.
• These unlimited proteolysis pathways are essential for protein
quality control and the reuse of amino acids during starvation.
5
Some Cells Secrete proteases
• Proteases are secreted by cells into the
surrounding tissues to cause the
destruction of proteins in extracellular
material.
• Secreted into an area (stomach) for the
breakdown of protein in the diet.
6
Protease, peptidase, or proteinase?
• Protease: is synonymous with peptidase.
• Subclass EC 3.4.). 3 = hydrolase 4 = amide bond (peptide bond)
• The Peptidases are comprised of two groups of enzymes:
– Endopeptidases: cleave peptide bonds at points within the protein.
– Exopeptidases: remove amino acids sequentially from either N or Cterminus.
– Proteinase: synonymous with endopeptidase.

Serine protease catalytic mechanism
Serine Proteases often use the
chymotrypsinogen numbering:
His 57, Asp 102 and Ser 195
Two distinct evolutionarily unrelated families:
(The classic example of convergent evolution)
• Mammalian: chymotrypsin, trypsin or
elastase
• Bacterial :subtilisin.
Ser/His/Asp Catalytic triad mechanism
Ser: nucleophile
His: general base
Asp: help orient and neutralizes charge on His

Trypsin
This serine endopeptidase is the active form (MW 24,000) of the pancreatic proenzyme trypsinogen that
is activated in the intestine by enterokinase.
Chymotrypsin
A group of serine proteases found in pancreatic secretions that hydrolyze peptide bonds in the process of
digestion. This endopeptidase is made in the exocrine pancreas as a precursor that is activated by
proteolytic cleavage in the duodenum by trypsin.
Elastase
MW 25.000. Serine protease of broad specificity made in the exocrine pancreas.
Subtilisin
Serine protease of bacterial origin.
Plasmin
Serine protease derived from the precursor plasminogen that breaks down insoluble fibrin thus disolving
blood clots.
Thrombin
Serine protease present in plasma as a precursor called prothrombin (MW 72,000). The active form (MW
34,000) converts plasma fibrinogen into insoluble fibrin forming the basis of a blood clot.
Kallikrein
Causes the liberation of kinins from plasma protein precursors causing vasodilation and possibly
hypotension.
Streptokinase
Protease produced by hemolytic bacteria that activates plasminogen thus producing plasmin which
disolves fibrin. Therapeutically streptokinase has been used to dissolve pulmonary emboli and venous
thromboses.
Urokinase
This protease is found in human blood and urine. It activates plasminogen by the cleavage of a
propeptide forming the active serine protease plasmin. Therapeutically it is used to dissolve blood clots.
11
The Serine Proteases
•
•
•
•
•
Trypsin, chymotrypsin, elastase, thrombin,
subtilisin, plasmin, TPA
All involve a serine in catalysis - thus the name
Ser is part of a "catalytic triad" of Ser, His, Asp
Serine proteases are homologous, but locations
of the three crucial residues differ somewhat
Enzymologists agree, however, to number them
always as His-57, Asp-102, Ser-195
Burst kinetics yield a hint of how they work!
12
13
Serine Protease Mechanism
•
•
•
•
•
A mixture of covalent and general acid-base
catalysis
Asp-102 functions only to orient His-57
His-57 acts as a general acid and base
Ser-195 forms a covalent bond with peptide
to be cleaved
Covalent bond formation turns a trigonal C
into a tetrahedral C
The tetrahedral oxyanion intermediate is
stabilized by N-Hs of Gly-193 and Ser-195

22
1. Conformational distortion forms the tetrahedral
intermediate and causes the carboxyl to move close to the
oxyanion hole
2. Now it forms two hydrogen bonds with the enzyme that
cannot form when the carbonyl is in its normal conformation.
3. Distortion caused by the enzyme binding allows the
hydrogen bonds to be maximal.

active site and all have the same reaction
mechanism.

Cysteine protease catalytic mechanism
Papain is the archetype and
the best studied member of the
family

Cysteine proteases sometimes
use the Papain numbering
system: Cys25 and His159.
Asn175 helps stabilize the
Cys- and His+ ion pair
Unlike Ser protease Cys

Cys25 and His159 play the same
catalytic roles as Ser195 and His57
respectively in the serine proteases.
Covalent tetrahedral intermediates
43
Famous cysteine proteases
• Papain
Thiol protease from the papaya. MW of about 23,400 used for
tenderizing meats.
• Bromelain
Thiol protease found in pinapple juice and stem tissue. Glycoprotein
of about 33,000 MW used in meat tenderizing, beer production and
hydrolization of proteins in the food industry.
• mammalian lysosomal Cathepsins (11)
These intracellular cysteine proteases are involved in such diverse
activities as blood clotting, cancer growth and metastasis and bone
remodeling. Several varieties have been isolated from various
tissues, each having specific functions.
• cytosolic calpains (calcium-activated)
• parasitic proteases (e.g Trypanosoma).
• Interleukin-1-beta Converting Enzyme
44
Aspartic protease catalytic mechanism
Bi-lobe enzymes with the active site
located between two homologous lobes.
1
Asp general acid-base catalysis
2 "push-pull" mechanisms (steps 1 and 3)
Non-covalently bound (neutral) tetrahedral
intermediate.
Low-barrier H-bonds may be involved.

45
Famous aspartic proteases
• Pepsin
Aspartic protease that cleaves bonds involving phenylalanine and leucine
preferentially. MW 34,500. This endopeptidase is the principal digestive
enzyme in gastric juice formed from the precursor pepsinogen (MW
38,000). (first protein crystals to diffract)
• Renin
Also known as angiotensinogenase. It is made by the juxtaglomerular
cells in the kidney, released into the blood stream and acts to convert
angiotensionogen into angiotensin I. It is an aspartyl protease having a
molecular weight of about 40.000 Renin is elevated in some forms of
hypertension.
• cathepsins D
• fungal proteases (penicillopepsin, rhizopuspepsin, endothiapepsin).
• viral proteinases such as HIV protease (retropepsin).
46
The Aspartic Proteases
•
•
•
•
Pepsin, chymosin, cathepsin D, renin and
HIV-1 protease
All involve two Asp residues at the active site
Two Asps work together as general acid-base
catalysts
Most aspartic proteases have a tertiary
structure consisting of two lobes (N-terminal
and C-terminal) with approximate two-fold
symmetry
HIV-1 protease is a homodimer
47
48
Aspartic Protease Mechanism
The pKa values of the Asp residues are crucial
• One Asp has a relatively low pKa, other has
a relatively high pKa
• Deprotonated Asp acts as general base,
accepting a proton from HOH, forming OHin the transition state
• Other Asp (general acid) donates a proton,
facilitating formation of tetrahedral
intermediate
49
50
Asp Protease Mechanism
• What evidence exists to support the
hypothesis of different pKa values for the
two Asp residues?
• Bell-shaped curve is a summation of the
curves for the two Asp titrations
• In pepsin, one Asp has pKa of 1.4, the
other 4.3

HIV-1 Protease
•
•
•
•
•
A novel aspartic protease
HIV-1 protease cleaves the polyprotein
products of the HIV genome
This is a remarkable imitation of mammalian
aspartic proteases
HIV-1 protease is a homodimer - more
genetically economical for the virus
Active site is two-fold symmetric
Two Asp residues - one high pKa, one low pKa
55
56
Therapy for HIV?
•
•
•
•
Protease inhibitors as AIDS drugs
If the HIV-1 protease can be selectively
inhibited, then new HIV particles cannot form
Several novel protease inhibitors are currently
marketed as AIDS drugs
Many such inhibitors work in a culture dish
However, a successful drug must be able to
kill the virus in a human subject without
blocking other essential proteases in the body
57
58
59
Metallo-protease catalytic mechanism
• Most contain a Zn atom that is involved in catalysis.
Sometimes Zn can be replaced by Co or Ni.
• Zn is usually coordinated by 2 His and 1 Glu.
Many contain the sequence HEXXH
H
• Non-covalent (oxyanion) tetrahedral intermediate.
After the attack of a Zn-bound water molecule
on the carbonyl group of the scissile bond.
The intermediate breaks down by transfer of a proton
From a Glu to the leaving group (not shown).
60
Famous metallo-proteases
• Thermolysin
Extracellular thermostable zinc metalloprotease
from bacterial sources.
• Collagenase
Proteases that breakdown collagen that are
produced by some species of bacteria such as
Clostridium. Also isolated in human wound
tissue, skin, bone, leukocytes, and cornea.
Family of metalloproteases (MW 68,000125,000) that require zinc and calcium for
activity. They are used in research for the
isolation of cells from animal tissues.
