Molecular basis for the production of cyclic peptides by plant asparaginyl endopeptidases

Asparaginyl endopeptidases (AEPs) are plant proteases that can also function as ligases, catalyzing the production of cyclic plant peptides. Here, the authors identify structural features that govern AEP ligase activity, providing insights to aid the discovery and engineering of ligase-type AEPs.
