Abstract:
Cruzipain, the major cysteine proteinase from Trypanosoma cruzi, has a 130 amino acid-long C-terminal domain, which, although microheterogeneous in SDS-PAGE, has a single N-terminal amino acid sequence. Most of the Thr residues present at the beginning of this sequence are modified; the nature of this modification is still unknown, but O-glycosylation and phosphorylation seem both to be absent. The only potential site for N-glycosylation (Asn 254) is glycosylated in vivo. Most of the eight Cys residues are involved in disulfide bridges. The results are consistent with cruzipain being made of two well-defined domains, a catalytic one with high homology to cathepsin L, and a C-terminal domain, linked to the former by a 'hinge' corresponding to the Pro-and Thr-rich region at its N-terminus. © 1992.
