Comparison of the subsite specificity of the mammalian neutral endopeptidase 24.11 (enkephalinase) to the bacterial neutral endopeptidase thermolysin.
Abstract
A comparison has been made of the specificity of the mammalian neutral metalloendopeptidase, endopeptidase 24.11, with that of the bacterial neutral metalloendopeptidase thermolysin. A series of synthetic oligopeptides which have previously been studied as substrates for thermolysin and used in computer modeling were examined as substrates for the mammalian enzyme. It was found that P1, P2, and P'3 subsite interactions in the mammalian enzyme, although similar to those found in thermolysin, are less restrictive spatially and are considerably less dependent on hydrophobic interactions. This difference was maximally expressed with the synthetic substrate dansyl-D-alanylglycylnitrophenylalanylglycine which is a substrate for the mammalian enzyme, but not for the bacterial enzyme. A comparison of substrates in the free acid form with their corresponding amides showed that binding to the mammalian enzyme is dependent in part on an ionic interaction between the substrate carboxylate group and the enzyme. Such an ionic interaction was not observed with the bacterial enzyme.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
