Biochemical study of fibrinolytic protease from Euphausia superba possessing multifunctional serine protease activity.

CONCLUSION: Our study indicated that EFP has an essential serine residue for its catalyst function and associated folding behaviors. Also, the functional role of osmolytes such as proline and glycine that may play a role in defense mechanisms from environmental adaptation in a krill's body was suggested.
