説明
We determined the complete amino acid sequence of a novel subtilisin inhibitor, SIL15, which had been isolated from the culture supernatant of Streptomyces bikiniensis and shown to be a member of the Streptomyces subtilisin inhibitor (SSI)-like (SIL) protein family, and then identified its reactive site. SIL15 is composed of 113 amino acids and exists as a dimer. Compared with other SSI-family inhibitors, SIL15 was found to be unique in that it possesses a Gln residue at the P1 site of the reactive site and has two-residue insertions in two regions, one in the alpha 1-helix and the other in the flexible loop region near the reactive site. Inhibition of subtilisin BPN' by SIL15 (inhibitor constant, 2.7 x 10(-11) M) was due to the presence of a Gln residue at the P1 site, which was well consistent with the results obtained for P1-site mutants of SSI and turkey ovomucoid domain 3.
