Study on preparation technology of low-phenylalanine perilla peptide
To enrich low-phenylalanine formula food for special medical purposes, this study used perilla defatted seed meal as the raw material to optimize the double enzymatic hydrolysis process through single factor and response surface analysis, while exploring

Aminopeptidases are enzymes that cleave the N-terminal region of proteins and show structural conservation in prokaryotes and eukaryotes. We aimed to identify leucine-aminopeptidase A (LAP-A) orthologs in the genome of bee species with diff erent levels ...

Development of a Bestatin-SAHA Hybrid with Dual Inhibitory Activity against APN and HDAC
With five histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors approved for cancer treatment, proteolysis-targeting chimeras (PROTACs) for degradation of HDAC are emerging as an alternative strategy for HDAC-targeted therapeutic intervention.

Omics assisted N-terminal proteoform and protein expression profiling on methionine aminopeptidase 1 (MetAP1) deletion [PDF]
Excision of the N-terminal initiator methionine (iMet) residue from nascent peptide chains is an essential and omnipresent protein modification carried out by methionine aminopeptidases (MetAPs) that accounts for a major source of N-terminal proteoform ...

Analysis of pathogenic bacteria using exogenous volatile organic compound metabolites and optical sensor detection [PDF]
A novel, low-cost and simple method for the detection of pathogenic bacteria is proposed. The approach is based on the generation of an exogenous volatile organic compound (VOC) produced by the addition of an enzyme substrate to the bacterial sample. The

We identify an antagonistic ubiquitin circuit that controls cellular permissiveness to multiple coronaviruses. The deubiquitinase USP7 stabilizes the epigenetic regulator KDM6A to upregulate viral receptors, while the E3 ligase RNF40 degrades KDM6A by catalyzing K6/K11‐ubiquitin chains of KDM6A for autophagic degradation.

Analyzing the Binding of Co(II)-specific Inhibitors to the Methionyl Aminopeptidases from \u3cem\u3eEscherichia coli\u3c/em\u3e and \u3cem\u3ePyrococcus furiosus\u3c/em\u3e [PDF]
Methionine aminopeptidases (MetAPs) represent a unique class of protease that is capable of the hydrolytic removal of an N-terminal methionine residue from nascent polypeptide chains.
