Expasy PeptideCutter tool: available enzymes
Optimum cleavage sites are when Arg in position P1 and Gly in position P2 and position P1'. Likewise, when hydrophobic residues are found in position P4 and position P3 , Pro in position P2, Arg in position P1, and non-acidic amino-acids in position P1' and position P2'.
Bioinformatics explained: Proteolytic cleavage
The substrate is cleaved between position P1-P1'. Proteases often have a specific recognition site where the peptide bond is cleaved. As an example trypsin only cleaves at lysine or arginine residues, but it does not matter (with a few exceptions) which amino acid is located at position P1'(carboxyterminal of the cleavage site).

PeptideCutter [Documentation / References] predicts potential cleavage sites cleaved by proteases or chemicals in a given protein sequence. PeptideCutter returns the query sequence with the possible cleavage sites mapped on it and /or a table of cleavage site positions.
Procleave: in silico identification of protease substrate cleavage …
The hallmark of caspase is that it contains a cysteine residue at the active site and can cleave the substrates at specific tetrapeptides (canonical P4-P1 sites) with a highly conserved aspartate (D) at the P1 position.
Procleave: Predicting Protease-specific Substrate Cleavage …
2020年2月1日 · Protease-specific cleavage is a ubiquitous type of irreversible post-translational modification (PTM) that occurs when proteases specifically cleave the peptide bonds between the P1 and P1′ sites of target proteins or peptide substrates [1].

To sum the results up, chymotrypsin preferentially cleaves at aromatic residues in position P1. It almost never cleaves at aspartic acid, glutaminic acid, glycine or proline. Certain amino acids have a favourable effect when positioned in P1, such as Lys or Arg. In contrast to that, Pro in P1' blocks almost all cleavage activities.

2009年6月22日 · The P1 site is defined as the amino acid that is C-terminally cleaved. N-terminal from P1 are additional sites (P2, P3, P4, etc.) that are accommodated by corresponding S sites in the catalytic pocket of the proteinase. P′ sites are C-terminal from P1. The P′ sites can also be accommodated by corresponding subsites in the substrate-binding ...

2014年9月11日 · Degradomics analysis of 2,405 cleavage sites revealed a similar and characteristic TTSP family specificity at the P1 and P1′ positions for arginine and lysine in unfolded peptides. The prime side is important for cleavage specificity, thus making these proteases unusual within the tryptic-enzyme class that generally has overriding non-prime ...

2024年10月28日 · According to the nomenclature introduced by (Schechter and Berger, 1967), proteases cleave their substrates by definition between the P1 and the P1’ residues (Fig. 1A). Recognition of P1 by a specific active site pocket, generically termed subsite S1, often provides substrate sequence specificity to the enzyme.
