Description | This family includes both microviridins and marinostatins. It seems likely that in both cases it is the C terminus which becomes the active inhibitor after post-translational modifications of the full length, pre-peptide. it is the ester linkages within the key, 12-residue. region that circularise the molecule giving it its inhibitory conformation. | Name | Protease inhibitor I10, marinostatin |
Short Name | Prot_inh_I10_marinostatin | Type | Family |
