Protein Domain : PepSY domain IPR025711

Type	Domain
Description	This domain is likely to have a protease inhibitory function. The name is derived from peptidase (M4) and YpeB of Bacillus subtilis [ ].This domain is found in the propeptide of members of the MEROPS peptidase family M4 (clan MA(E)), which contains the thermostable thermolysins ( ), and related thermolabile neutral proteases (bacillolysins) ( ) from various species of Bacillus. It is also in many non-peptidase proteins, including Bacillus subtilis YpeB protein - a regulator of SleB spore cortex lytic enzyme - and a large number of eubacterial and archaeal cell wall-associated and secreted proteins which are mostly annotated as 'hypothetical protein'.
Short Name	PepSY
