Distributions of Extracellular Peptidases Across Prokaryotic Genomes Reflect Phylogeny and Habitat
Proteinaceous compounds are abundant forms of organic nitrogen in soil and aquatic ecosystems, and the rate of protein depolymerization, which is accomplished by a diverse range of microbial secreted peptidases, often limits nitrogen turnover in the environment. To determine if the distribution of s...
