You can use proteolytic enzyme files to:
- locate cleavage sites for proteolytic agents in a protein sequence
- predict the fragments that would result from single or multiple digests using up to six proteolytic agents.
To use this functionality, a protein sequence window must be the active window, and a proteolytic enzyme file must be available.
Although we use the term proteolytic enzyme in the MacVector documentation, the analysis can locate cleavage sites for any proteolytic agents -- whether enzymes or chemical agents -- that cleave a protein in a sequence-specific manner.
