Wells, ature 332, (1988) Subtilisin, wild type and mutants K m k cat/k m AA 32 AA 64 AA 221 (µm) (s -1 mol -1 ) Asp is Ser Ala is Ser Asp Ala Ser Asp is Ala Ala Ala Ala uncatalysed reaction: k vs. k Ala,Ala,Ala Why is the Ala-Ala-Ala mutant still enzymatically active? ugo Kubinyi, Substrate-Assisted Catalysis in a Subtilisin is64ala Mutant Asp32 - R is64ala mutant X Ser221 R Subtilisin cleaves structurally different peptide substrates. The is64ala mutant cleaves XXX-is-XXX peptides 4 orders of magnitude slower than wild-type subtilisin but about 200 times faster than substrates without is. P. Carter and J. A.

The P 1 pocket of chymotrypsin is designed for large, lipophilic side chains. Elastase has a relatively small lipophilic P 1 pocket; it binds only small hydrophobic amino acids, like alanine and valine.
