Alkaline protease from Pseudomonas aeruginosa

The first structures of this kind were reported in 1993 pectate lyase G from Erwinia chrysanthemi (Yoder et al, 1993) and alkaline protease from Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Baumann et al, 1993). Based on consideration of these crystal structures, the term parallel //-helix was introduced for a fold containing three //-strands per coil, and parallel //-roll for a fold with two //-strands per coil (Baumann etal, 1993 Yoder andjurnak, 1995 Yoder et al., 1993). The epithet parallel was intended to emphasize the distinction between these folds and the previously observed helical structure of the antibiotic gramicidin which contains both l- and D-amino acids and...
