The ''Aeromonas Sobria Serine Protease'' ASP protein is a '''serine protease''' that will cut peptide bonds after specific amino acids of a target protein. It preferentially cleaves peptide bonds that follow dibasic amino-acid residues. The kexin-like serine protease belongs to the subtilisin family ([http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subtilase Subtilase]). The structure of ASP is similar to that of ''Kex2'' <ref>PMID:2646633</ref> ([[1r64]]), a protease of the subtilisin family, but ASP has a unique extra occluding region close to its active site.

This protein is secreted by the Anaerobic bacterium [http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aeromonas Aeromonas Sobria], which can cause potentially lethal septic shock. It is a clinical syndrome of potentially fatal organ dysfunction caused by a disorder in the response to infection. In septic shock, there is a critical reduction in tissue perfusion; acute multivisceral failure, including the lungs, kidneys and liver, can be observed. <ref>http://www.mdsmanuals.com Septic Shock</ref>

ASP is a '''[http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sepsis sepsis]-related factor'''. It can cause several dysfunction like by inducing vascular leakage, reducing blood pressure via the activation of the [http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinin-kallikreinsystem kinin system] or promoting human plasma coagulation through the activation of [http://fr.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prothrombine prothrombin]. Finally it can causes the formation of pus and edema through the action of anaphylatoxin C5a ([[4p3a]]). Gastroenteritis, and in extreme cases deuteropathy, are the main syndrome caused by infection with ''A.sobria''.

The '''domain structure of ASP''' consists of the propeptide, the catalytic subtilisin-like domain, and the P-domain. The ASP molecule have two mean regions: an N-terminal region extending from Gly-3 to Pro-431 and forming the <scene name='82/829344/The_subtilisin_domain/2'>subtilisin domain</scene>, and a C-terminal region extending from Leu-432 to His-595 and forming the <scene name='82/829344/The_p-domain/2'>P-domain</scene>.

'''Mechanism:''' The mechanism is the following: The histidine will react with the serine and deprotonate it. '''The deprotonated hydroxyl group of the serine will act as a nucleophilic species''' and attack the carbon from the carbonyl function on the peptide. This will lead to the formation of a tetrahedral intermediate. Then, a second tetrahedral intermediate will be formed, but with the attack of a deprotonated water molecule. At the end, the regeneration of the active site will be done with the release of the peptide cut in two parts.
