== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
Engineering precise substrate specificity of proteases advances the potential to use them in biotechnological and therapeutic applications. Collagen degradation, a physiological process mediated by collagenases, is an integral part of extracellular matrix remodeling and when uncontrolled, implicated in different pathological conditions. Lysosomal cathepsin-K cleaves triple helical collagen fiber, whereas cathepsin-L cannot do so. In this study, we have imparted collagenolytic property to cathepsin-L, by systematically engineering proline-specificity and glycosaminoglycans (GAG)-binding surface in the protease. The proline-specific mutant shows high specificity for prolyl-peptidic substrate but is incapable of cleaving collagen. Engineering a GAG-binding surface on the proline-specific mutant enabled it to degrade type-I collagen in the presence of chondroitin-4-sulfate (C4-S). We also present the crystal structures of proline-specific (1.4 A) and collagen-specific (1.8 A) mutants. Finally docking studies with prolyl-peptidic substrate (Ala-Gly-Pro-Arg-Ala) at the active site and a C4-S molecule at the GAG-binding site enable us to identify key structural features responsible for collagenolytic activity of cysteine cathepsins.
