Evolution of protease activation and specificity via alpha-2-macroglobulin-mediated covalent capture
Custom proteases find applications as therapeutics, in research and in biotechnological applications. Here, the authors establish a protease selection system based on bacterial alpha-2-macroglobulin protease inhibitors and evolve staphylococcal proteases for increased activity and altered specificit...
