Proteolysis is the directed degradation (digestion) of proteins by cellular enzymes called proteases or by intramolecular digestion.
Proteolysis is used by the cell for several purposes. They include ...
Proteolysis
The degradation of proteins to peptides or amino acids catalyzed by proteases.
[edit] Proteolysis
The mechanism of proteolysis by the β subunits of the 20S core particle is through a threonine-dependent nucleophilic attack.
Mediated phosphorylation of Ci promotes its proteolysis (Chen,, 1998)
PKA catalytic subunit increased proteolytic processing (Chen,, 1998)
PKI, PKA inhibitor, blocks processing (Chen,, 1998) ...
Deactivation of the mitosis-inducing protein kinase (abbreviated MPF from the older term maturation-promoting factor) activity by proteolysis of cyclin subunits serves to initiate anaphase.
(Science: protein) polypeptide hormone (_ form: 9894D, 91 residues, _ form has only residues 1-58 of _) from the pituitary hypophysis, that is of particular interest because it is the precursor of endorphins, which are released by proteolysis.
