Latency, thermal stability, and identification of an inhibitory compound of mirolysin, a secretory protease of the human periodontopathogen Tannerella forsythia

Mirolysin is a secretory protease of Tannerella forsythia, a member of the dysbiotic oral microbiota responsible for periodontitis. In this study, we show that mirolysin latency is achieved by a “cysteine-switch” mechanism exerted by Cys23 in the N-terminal profragment. Mutation of Cys23 shortened t...
