PGA4

Gene
PGA4
Protein
1,3-beta-glucanosyltransferase PGA4
Organism
Candida albicans (strain SC5314 / ATCC MYA-2876)
Length
451 amino acids
Function
Splits internally a 1,3-beta-glucan molecule and transfers the newly generated reducing end (the donor) to the non-reducing end of another 1,3-beta-glucan molecule (the acceptor) forming a 1,3-beta linkage, resulting in the elongation of 1,3-beta-glucan chains in the cell wall. Involved in cell wall biosynthesis and morphogenesis. Plays a key role in virulence.
Similarity
Belongs to the glycosyl hydrolase 72 family.

Gene
PGA4
Protein
Pepsin A-4
Organism
Homo sapiens
Length
388 amino acids
Function
Shows particularly broad specificity; although bonds involving phenylalanine and leucine are preferred, many others are also cleaved to some extent.
Similarity
Belongs to the peptidase A1 family.
