Vacuolar processing enzyme (VPE) is a cysteine proteinase originally identified as the
proteinase responsible for the maturation and activation of vacuolar proteins in plants, and it …

The vacuolar cysteine protease legumain can cleave and selectively rebuild peptide bonds,
thereby vastly expanding the sequential repertoire of biomolecules. In this context, plant …
