• Endopeptidase activities during in vitro tracheary element (TE) differentiation of Zinnia cells were investigated using peptidyl 4-methylcoumaryl-7-amide (MCA) compounds as substrate. Endopeptidase activities against Boc-Val-Leu-Lys-MCA, with an acidic pH optimum and against Boc-Phe-Ser-Arg-MCA, with an alkaline pH optimum were found to be induced preferentially in cells cultured in TE differentiation-inductive medium, although the former activity appeared earlier than the latter one during the culture. Each activity was eluted as a single peak in DEAE-Sepharose column chromatography. The nature of Boc-Val-Leu-Lys-MCA hydrolyzing activity was similar to that of a papain-like cysteine protease as reported previously by our group. On the other hand, the partially purified Boc-Phe-Ser-Arg-MCA hydrolyzing activity was completely inhibited by leupeptin and weakly by E-64, but not by pepstatin A, 1, 10-phenanthroline, or PMSF, suggesting that this activity results from a cysteine protease(s). These results reveal the Boc-Phe-Ser-Arg-MCA hydrolyzing activity is due to a novel cysteine protease with an alkaline pH optimum which may function during TE differentiation.
