Cysteine 904 Is Required for Maximal Insulin Degrading Enzyme Activity and Polyanion Activation
Cysteine residues in insulin degrading enzyme have been reported as non-critical for its activity. We found that converting the twelve cysteine residues in rat insulin degrading enzyme (IDE) to serines resulted in a cysteine-free form of the enzyme with reduced activity and decreased activation by p...
