Activating Compound

Activating Compound Comment Organism Structure
additional information procathepsin H is not capable of autoactivation and requires other proteases such as cathepsin L for its activation Homo sapiens

Cloned(Commentary)

Cloned (Comment) Organism
procathepsin H (Ala1P-Val220) construct is cloned with an N-terminal gp64 secretion signal peptide and an uncleavable C-terminal His6-tag, recombinant expression of wild-type enzyme in Spodoptera frugiperda Sf9 cells using the baculovirus transfection system, recombinant expression of His-tagged mutant enzymes in HEK-293T cells using the lentiviral viral vector CD731B Homo sapiens

Crystallization (Commentary)

Crystallization (Comment) Organism
purified wild-type and C26S mutant procathepsin H, sitting drop vapor diffusion method, 5.7 mg/ml protein, crystal growth from 0.1 M Na2HPO4/citric acid, pH 4.2, and 2.0 M (NH4)2SO4, 1 week, 20°C, method optimization, X-ray diffraction structure determination and analysis at 2.0 A and 1.66 A resolution, respectively, molecular replacement and modeling Homo sapiens

Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
C26S site-directed mutagenesis, catalytically inactive active site mutant Homo sapiens
C80S site-directed mutagenesis, the mutation removes the disulfide between the mini-chain and the mature domain and completely abolishes the protease activity Homo sapiens

additional information molecular basis for the inhibition of the mature enzyme by the prodomain. The prodomain of procathepsin H has an N-terminal helical subdomain (Ala1P-Ser75P) and an extended portion (Glu76P-Pro93P) that links the helical subdomain to Tyr1 of the mature domain Homo sapiens

Posttranslational Modification

Posttranslational Modification Comment Organism
glycoprotein the enzyme harbors two glycosylation sites, Asn79P on the mini-chain of the prodomain and Asn115 on the mature domain. No glycan is built for Asn79P in cathepsin H due to poor electron density, although it is glycosylated Homo sapiens
proteolytic modification the enzyme is synthesized as an inactive proenzyme, the N-terminal prodomain (Ala1P-Pro93P) is cleaved off for maturation, a C-terminal mature domain (Tyr1-Val220) with a disulfide bridge between Cys212 and the mini-chain Cys80P remains. Procathepsin H is not autoactivated but can be transactivated by cathepsin L. The prodomain of procathepsin H has an N-terminal helical subdomain (Ala1P-Ser75P) and an extended portion (Glu76P-Pro93P) that links the helical subdomain to Tyr1 of the mature domain Homo sapiens

Purification (Commentary)

Purification (Comment) Organism
recombinant His-tagged wild-type and mutant enzymes from Spodoptera frugiperda Sf9 cells or HEK-23T cells, respectively, by nickel affinity chromatography and gel filtration Homo sapiens

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
evolution cathepsin H is a member of the papain superfamily of lysosomal cysteine proteases Homo sapiens
additional information the catalytic triad residues Cys26, His166 and Asn186 of procathepsin H reside in the active site cleft Homo sapiens
physiological function the mature enzyme is inhibited by its own prodomain after maturation cleavage. Upon activation, cathepsin H displays a distinct proteolytic activity among the papain superfamily, functioning predominantly as an aminopeptidase that cleaves a single N-terminal residue from a polypeptide chain. Cathepsin H has also been shown to act as an endopeptidase, although with much lower efficiency Homo sapiens
