7JFS, 7JNB, 7JND, 7JNF, 7JRL, 7JRM, 7JS4 - PubMed Abstract: 
A challenge faced by peptidases is the recognition of highly diverse substrates. A feature of some peptidase families is the capacity to specifically use post-translationally added glycans present on their protein substrates as a recognition determinant. This is ultimately critical to enabling peptide bond hydrolysis ...
