CC -!- FUNCTION: Cysteine protease that plays an important role in the
CC inhibition of host innate immune response. Cleaves host elastins found
CC in connective tissues, pulmonary surfactant protein A in the lungs, and
CC the chemokine receptor CXCR2 on leukocytes. Proteolytic cleavage of
CC surfactant protein A impairs bacterial phagocytosis by neutrophils
CC while CXCR2 degradation blocks neutrophil activation and chemotaxis.
CC Additionally, promotes vascular leakage by activating the plasma
CC kallikerin/kinin system, resulting in hypotension.
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P81297}.
CC -!- CATALYTIC ACTIVITY:
CC Reaction=Broad endopeptidase action on proteins including elastin, but
CC rather limited hydrolysis of small-molecule substrates. Assays are
CC conveniently made with hemoglobin, casein or Z-Phe-Arg-NHMec as
CC substrate.; EC=3.4.22.48;
CC -!- ACTIVITY REGULATION: Prematurely activated/folded staphopain A is
CC inhibited by staphostatin A (ScpB), which is probably required to
CC protect staphylococcal cytoplasmic proteins from degradation by ScpA.
CC {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: In the cytoplasm, prematurely activated/folded ScpA forms a
CC stable non-covalent complex with ScpB. {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P81297}.
CC -!- INDUCTION: Expression occurs in a growth phase-dependent manner with
CC optimal expression at post-exponential phase. Up-regulated by Agr
CC (accessory gene regulator) and repressed by SarA (staphylococcal
CC accessory regulator) and sigmaB factor. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:14702415}.
CC -!- PTM: Cleavage leads to the activation of ScpA probably by an auto-
CC catalytic manner. {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: The catalytic maturation of ScpA appears to reside
CC outside the cascade of activation started by the metalloprotease
CC aureolysin (aur). {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the peptidase C47 family. {ECO:0000305}.
