Over het archief
Het OWA, het open archief van het Waterbouwkundig Laboratorium heeft tot doel alle vrij toegankelijke onderzoeksresultaten van dit instituut in digitale vorm aan te bieden. Op die manier wil het de zichtbaarheid, verspreiding en gebruik van deze onderzoeksresultaten, alsook de wetenschappelijke communicatie maximaal bevorderen.
Dit archief wordt uitgebouwd en beheerd volgens de principes van de Open Access Movement, en het daaruit ontstane Open Archives Initiative.

| Abstract |
The primary structure of an elastase from the Antarctic fish Notothenia neglecta (NE) was elucidated by molecular cloning and cDNA sequence analysis. The cDNA of interest was isolated from a cDNA library obtained from Notothenia's pyloric caeca. The amino acid sequence identity with mammalian elastases ranges between 53 and 64%, but interestingly reaches 79% with one isoform (CEB) of two recently isolated cod elastases. The most interesting changes distinguishing the model of NE, predicted from the three dimentional structure of the native porcine elastase (PE), concern the catalytic crevice located in the inter-domains region. These features might be involved in the adaptation to cold of the Antarctic elastase. |
