Hyaluronan lyase is secreted by most strains of the human pathogen, group B streptococcus. Site-directed mutagenesis of the enzyme identified three amino acid residues important for enzyme activity, H479, Y488, and R542. These three residues are in close proximity in the putative active site of a ho

## Abstract In this study, the MCF‐7 breast cancer cells that lack caspase‐3 were transfected with a wild type (WT) or mutant caspase‐3 cDNA. Expression of the WT, but not of the mutant, caspase‐3 was associated with increased caspase activity and susceptibility to staurosporine (STS)‐induced apopt
