- Abstract
Discusses the importance of N-terminal prepeptide on the production of spore cortex-lytic enzyme. Conversion of inactive enzyme to active enzyme by processing of an N-terminal prosequence; Association of N-terminal prepeptide with C-terminal proregion inactive proenzyme; Contribution of N-terminal prosequence to the regulation of enzyme activity.
