| Abstract | A transgenic plant cell suspension culture was established as a versatile and efficient expression system for the subtilase SlSBT3 from tomato. The recombinant protease was purified to homogeneity from culture supernatants by fractionated ammonium sulfate precipitation, batch adsorption to cation exchange material, and anion exchange chromatography. Purified SlSBT3 was identified as a 79-kDa glycoprotein with both complex and paucimannosidic type glycan chains at Asn(177), Asn(203), Asn(376), Asn(697), and Asn(745). SlSBT3 was found to be a very stable enzyme, being fully active at 60 degrees C and showing highest activity at alkaline conditions with a maximum between pH 7.5 and 8.0. Substrate specificity of SlSBT3 was analyzed in detail, revealing a preference for Gln and Lys in the P(1) and P(2) positions of oligopeptide substrates, respectively. Similar to bacterial, yeast, and mammalian subtilases, SlSBT3 is synthesized as a preproenzyme, and processing of the prodomain in the endoplasmic reticulum is a prerequisite for passage through the secretory pathway. SlSBT3 S538A and S538C active site mutants accumulated intracellularly as unprocessed zymogens, indicating that prodomain cleavage occurs autocatalytically. The wild-type SlSBT3 protein failed to cleave the prodomain of the S538A mutant in trans, demonstrating that zymogen maturation is an intramolecular process. Distinguishing features of plant as compared with mammalian subtilases include the insertion of a large protease-associated domain between the His and Ser residues of the catalytic triad and the C-terminal extension to the catalytic domain. Both features were found to be required for SlSBT3 activity and, consequently, for prodomain processing and secretion. |

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.
