Subtilases are a family of serine proteases. They appear to have independently and convergently evolved an Asp/Ser/His catalytic triad, like that found in the trypsin serine proteases (see Pfam:PF00089). Structure is an alpha/beta fold containing a 7-stranded parallel beta sheet, order 2314567.
This entry represents the propeptide domain found at the N-terminal of peptidases belonging to MEROPS family S8A, subtilisins. This propeptide is removed by proteolytic cleavage, which activates the enzyme.
