Application
Clostripain from Clostridium histolyticum has been used as a proteolytic enzyme in perfusate to detect its effect on tube hematocrit. It has also been used in limited proteolysis of DNA polymerase (gp43) of phage T4 (RB69 gp43).
Biochem/physiol Actions
Clostripain from Clostridium histolyticum is composed of two polypeptide chains, with molecular masses of 41.7 kDa and 15.4 kDa. Clostripain has a highly restricted substrate specificity for Arg-Xaa peptide bonds. Therefore, clostripain has been explored as a potential enzyme for protein sequencing purposes. It has also been studied as a catalyst for condensation of pharmaceutically important peptides containing Arg-Pro bonds.

Neurotrauma, as in the case of traumatic brain injury, promotes protease over-activation characterized by the select fragmentation of brain proteins. The resulting polypeptides are indicators of biochemical processes, which can be used to study post-injury dynamics and may also be

In this study, the clostripain gene was modified and its signal sequence was replaced with that of penicillin G acylase (PGA). The core clostripain protein fused to the PGA signal peptide was also prepared. With regard to the expression of

Clostripain-specific antibodies were used to analyse the maturation of clostripain prepro-enzyme and core protein heterologously synthesized in Escherichia coli and Bacillus subtilis. Core protein purified from E. coli cells harbouring plasmid pHM3-23 underwent calcium-dependent, self-triggered maturation. Concomitantly, the inactive form

Acid-precipitated rabbit 'whole casein' was digested by trypsin, chymotrypsin, pepsin, and clostripain to screen for possible peptides with antibacterial properties. The peptide fragments were separated by reversed-phase chromatography. The collected fractions were pooled and their antibacterial properties tested against Escherichia
