A protease is an enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of thepeptide bonds of target proteins. How might a protease bind atarget protein so that its main chain becomes fully extended in thevicinity of the vulnerable peptide bond?
The hint that we got was this: look for a way the protease mightstabilize the substrate during hydrolysis
I'm open to several possibilities at this point but pleaseexplain your answer in detail.
