Clostridial collagenases are among the most efficient degraders of eukaryotic collagen known, saprophytes use collagen as a carbon source while pathogens additionally digest collagen to aid in host colonization. Has both tripeptidylcarboxypeptidase on Gly-X-Y and endopeptidase activities, the endopeptidase cuts within the triple helix region of collagen while tripeptidylcarboxypeptidase successively digests the exposed ends, thus clostridial collagenases can digest large sections of collagen. Source: Recombinant protein corresponding to aa90-370 from Clostridium perfringens Microbial collagenase, fused to 10X His-Tag at N-terminal and Myc-Tag at C-terminal, expressed in E.coli.
