Mirolysin structures open a window on gum disease
Guevara, Rodriguez-Banqueri et al. [(2020), IUCrJ, 7, 18–29] determine crystal structures of mirolysin, a metalloprotease that helps oral pathogen Tannerella forsythia evade the human immune response. The structures provide insight into the regulation and specificity of mirolysin, and hint at how it...
