Trypsin inhibitory activity associated with the subunit of the haemocyanin of Achatina fulica

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part B: Comparative Biochemistry, 1973
Abstract 1. 1. From the haemolymph of the gastropod Achatina fulica (giant African snail) a haemocyanin subunit of 70,000 daltons can be separated. 2. 2. This subunit exhibits an inhibitory effect on bovine trypsin. 3. 3. The haemocyanins from the haemolymphs of Helix pomatia and Helix aspersa do not dissociate under similar ...

Purification and characterization of an agglutinin from mucus of the snail Achatina fulica

Biochimie, 1988
The mucus of the snail Achatina fulica shows the presence of an agglutinin that nonspecifically agglutinates human erythrocytes. The agglutinin has been purified by affinity chromatography using Sepharose 4B-hog gastric mucin as the affinity matrix. Homogeneity was checked by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, immunodiffusion, immunoelectrophoresis ...

Hsp70 in the atrial neuroendocrine units of the snail, Achatina fulica

Cell Biology International, 2007
AbstractHeat shock proteins (Hsps) are evolutionary conserved peptides well known as molecular chaperones and stress proteins. Elevated levels of extracellular Hsps in blood plasma have been observed during the stress responses and some diseases. Information on the cellular sources of extracellular Hsps and mechanisms regulating their release is still ...
