The most important part of Serpins is an exposed region of 20 amino acids near the C terminus named the reactive center loop (<scene name='60/604473/The_rcl_loop_scene/3'>RCL</scene>). | The most important part of Serpins is an exposed region of 20 amino acids near the C terminus named the reactive center loop (<scene name='60/604473/The_rcl_loop_scene/3'>RCL</scene>). The amino-acids of <scene name='60/604473/The_rcl_loop_scene/3'>RCL</scene> are very conservated for Serpin B3 and allow the specificity interaction of the inhibitor for the target protease<ref> PMID : PMC24842</ref>. | ||

Structural studies on serpins revealed that inhibitory members of the family undergo an unusual conformational change, termed the Stressed to Relaxed (S to R) transition. During this structural transition the <scene name='60/604473/The_rcl_loop_scene/3'>RCL</scene> inserts into β-sheet | Structural studies on serpins revealed that inhibitory members of the family undergo an unusual conformational change, termed the Stressed to Relaxed (S to R) transition. During this structural transition the <scene name='60/604473/The_rcl_loop_scene/3'>RCL</scene> inserts into A β-sheet and forms an extra fourth β strand . The serpin conformational change is key to the mechanism of inhibition of target proteases. <scene name='60/604473/Rcl_insertion_into_beta_sheet/1'>Some amino-acids of RCL</scene> wich belong to a consensus sequence for inhibitory serpins are thought to permit efficient and rapid insertion of the RCL into the A β-sheet.

When a protease attack a substrate, it catalyze peptide bond cleavage in a two-step process. First, the catalytic serine or cysteine performs a nucleophilic attack on the peptide bond of the substrate. This forms an new bond between the enzyme and the substrate. This covalent enzyme-substrate complex is called an acyl enzyme intermediate. Then, this bond is hydrolyzed and the C-terminus is released. | When a protease attack a substrate, it catalyze peptide bond cleavage in a two-step process.
