Accepted name: |
picornain 3C |
Reaction: |
Selective cleavage of Gln┼Gly bond in the poliovirus polyprotein. In other picornavirus reactions Glu may be substituted for Gln, and Ser or Thr for Gly |
Other name(s): |
picornavirus endopeptidase 3C; poliovirus protease 3C; rhinovirus protease 3C; foot-and-mouth protease 3C; poliovirus proteinase 3C; rhinovirus proteinase 3C; coxsackievirus 3C proteinase; foot-and-mouth-disease virus proteinase 3C; 3C protease; 3C proteinase; cysteine proteinase 3C; hepatitis A virus 3C proteinase; protease 3C; tomato ringspot nepovirus 3C-related protease |
Comments: |
From entero-, rhino-, aphto- and cardioviruses. Larger than the homologous virus picornain 2A. Type example of peptidase family C3 |
