Abstract
Porphyromonas gingivalis is a bacterial pathogen that produces the polyproteins RgpA and Kgp, which are proteolytically processed into proteinases and adhesins. We have demonstrated that the RgpA and Kgp proteinases and adhesins are C terminally processed by carboxypeptidase CPG70 by sequencing C-terminal peptides from both the wild type and an isogenic CPG70 mutant, using ion trap mass spectrometry.Entities:
