We are deeply saddened by the passing of Amos Bairoch (1957–2025), the creator of PROSITE. We wish to dedicate our latest paper, published shortly before his death, to him. He will always be a source of inspiration to us.
Our deepest condolences go out to his family and friends, and to all those who had the privilege of working with him. Rest in peace, Amos. Your work will live on long after you are gone.
Amos Bairoch

Data class Domain;
Predictors PROSITE; PS51692; PESTIVIRUS_NS2_PRO
Name Pestivirus nonstructural protein 2 (NS2) protease domain
Function The C-terminal-most domain of NS2 is a cysteine autoprotease responsible for NS2-3 cleavage. The catalytic triad is formed by His, Glu, and Cys. The pestivirus NS2 protease domain contains five Cys and one His organized in a linear fashion, suggesting the presence of a mononuclear ZnB site. The pestivirus NS2 protease domain forms peptidase family C74.
