Inhibitory properties of cysteine protease pro-peptides from barley confer resistance to spider mite feeding.
C1A plant cysteine proteases are synthesized as pre-pro-enzymes that need to be processed to become active by the pro-peptide claves off from its cognate enzyme. These pro-sequences play multifunctional roles including the capacity to specifically inhibit their own as well as other C1A protease acti...
