Comparative biochemical analysis of three bacterial prolyl endopeptidases: implications for coeliac sprue

Prolyl endopeptidases have potential for treating coeliac sprue, a disease of the intestine caused by proteolytically resistant peptides from proline-rich prolamins of wheat, barley and rye. We compared the properties of three similar bacterial prolyl endopeptidases, including the known enzymes from... View More
