2011 journal article

Thermodynamic, enzymatic and structural effects of removing a salt bridge at the base of loop 4 in (pro)caspase-3

ARCHIVES OF BIOCHEMISTRY AND BIOPHYSICS, 508(1), 31–38.

author keywords: Apoptosis; Caspase activation; Enzyme activity; Protein folding and assembly
MeSH headings : Caspase 3 / chemistry; Caspase 3 / genetics; Caspase 3 / metabolism; Catalytic Domain; Crystallography, X-Ray; Enzyme Stability; Hydrogen Bonding; Models, Molecular; Mutation; Protein Folding; Static Electricity; Structure-Activity Relationship; Thermodynamics
TL;DR: Results suggest E246 and K242 are important in procaspase-3 for their interaction with neighboring residues, not with one another, and formation of the K242-E246 salt bridge in caspases3 is needed for an accurate, stable conformation of loop L4 and proper active site formation in the mature enzyme.
