| Abstract | Tk-subtilisin from the hyperthermophilic archaeon Thermococcus kodakarensis matures from Pro-Tk-subtilisin (Pro-TKS) upon autoprocessing and degradation of propeptide. Pro-TKS contains the insertion sequence (IS1) at the N-terminus of the mature domain as compared to bacterial pro-subtilisins. To analyze the role of IS1, the Pro-TKS derivative without IS1 (∆IS1-Pro-TKS) and its active-site mutants (∆IS1-Pro-S324A and ∆IS1-Pro-S324C) were constructed and characterized. ∆IS1-Pro-S324A and ∆IS1-Pro-TKS represent an unautoprocessed and autoprocessed form of ∆IS1-Pro-TKS, respectively. The CD and ANS fluorescence spectra of these proteins indicate that folding of ∆IS1-Pro-TKS is not completed by binding of Ca2+ ions but is completed by the subsequent autoprocessing reaction. Thermal denaturation of these proteins analyzed by DSC and CD spectroscopy indicates that unautoprocessed ∆IS1-Pro-TKS is less stable than autoprocessed ∆IS1-Pro-TKS by 26.3 °C in T m. The stability of autoprocessed ∆IS1-Pro-TKS is comparable to that of Pro-TKS, which is slightly lower than that of unautoprocessed Pro-TKS. These results suggest that ∆IS1-Pro-TKS is fully folded and greatly stabilized by autoprocessing. ∆IS1-Pro-TKS more slowly matured to ∆IS1-Tk-subtilisin than Pro-TKS did, due to a decrease in the autoprocessing rate. We propose that IS1 is required not only for hyperstabilization of Pro-TKS but also for its rapid maturation. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
