Abstract The food enzyme phospholipase D (phosphatidylcholine phosphatidohydrolase; EC 3.1.4.4) is produced with the genetically modified Streptomyces violaceoruber strain pPDN by Nagase ChemteX. The production strain of the food enzyme contains several antimicrobial resistance genes, of which at least one is acquired.

The High-Resolution Structures of the Neutral and the Low pH Crystals of Aminopeptidase from \u3cem\u3eAeromonas proteolytica\u3c/em\u3e [PDF]
The aminopeptidase from Aeromonas proteolytica (AAP) contains two zinc ions in the active site and catalyzes the degradation of peptides. Herein we report the crystal structures of AAP at 0.95-Å resolution at neutral pH and at 1.24-Å resolution at low pH.

Dipeptidyl peptidase IV, aminopeptidase N and DPIV/APN-like proteases in cerebral ischemia
Background Cerebral inflammation is a hallmark of neuronal degeneration. Dipeptidyl peptidase IV, aminopeptidase N as well as the dipeptidyl peptidases II, 8 and 9 and cytosolic alanyl-aminopeptidase are involved in the regulation of autoimmunity and ...

Proctolin and an Endogenous Proctolin-Like Peptide Enhance the Contractility of the Limulus Heart [PDF]
Synthetic proctolin increases the force but not the rate of heart contractions of Limulus in a time- and dose-dependent manner. The threshold of this effect is 3 × 10−10M and the ED50 is approximately 10−8M. At concentrations up to 10−7 M, proctolin has
