| P43094 | Candidapepsin-5 | Secreted aspartic peptidases (SAPs) are a group of ten acidichydrolases considered as key virulence factors. These enzymes supplythe fungus with nutrient amino acids as well as are able to degrade theselected host's proteins involved in the immune defense. Duringinfection, plays an important role in penetration into deeper tissuesand interaction with host defense. Moreover, acts toward humanhemoglobin though limited proteolysis to generate a variety ofantimicrobial hemocidins, enabling to compete with the othermicroorganisms of the same physiological niche using the microbicidalpeptides generated from the host protein. | SAP5 | Candida albicans | modified SN152 | 30296253 |
