Proteinase
Proteinase (PRO) are enzymes which hydrolyze peptide bonds. They are classified by the amino acid site of their cleavage or by the pH at which they are active. PRO B is a serine protease. For more details on PRO B see Streptomyces griseus proteinase B. PRO A is a carboxylproteinase. PRO K is a serine protease which cleaves proteins preferentially after hydrophobic residues. Calcium ions contribute to the stability of the enzyme. PRO K is active over a wide pH range and is used in molecular biology to inactivate nucleases from preparations of DNA or RNA. PRO K is used in the partial proteolysis of lactoferrin into its N- and C-lobe. The two lobes of lactoferrin have different antimicrobial and antifungal properties. PRO K can digest hair (keratin).
