Using microbial metalo-aminopeptidases as targets in human infectious diseases [PDF]
Microbial Cell, 2021 Several microbial metalo-aminopeptidases are emerging as novel targets for the treatment of human infectious diseases. Some of them are well validated as targets and some are not; some are essential enzymes and others are important for virulence and ...

Marine Invertebrates: A Promissory Still Unexplored Source of Inhibitors of Biomedically Relevant Metallo Aminopeptidases Belonging to the M1 and M17 Families [PDF]
Marine Drugs, 2023 Proteolytic enzymes, also known as peptidases, are critical in all living organisms. Peptidases control the cleavage, activation, turnover, and synthesis of proteins and regulate many biochemical and physiological processes.

Aminopeptidases of malaria parasites:new targets for chemotherapy
, 2010 Novel targets for new drug development are urgently required to combat malaria, a disease that puts half of the world's population at risk. One group of enzymes identified within the genome of the most lethal of the causative agents of malaria ...

Human Aminopeptidases: A Review of the Literature [PDF]
, 1988 Summary: The aminopeptidases constitute a group of enzymes with closely related activities. In clinical chemistry the analysis of the aminopeptidases and of their multiple forms in serum has for a long time been hindered by considerable confusion ...

Genetic characterization of the peptidases of Polistes versicolor (Hymenoptera: Vespidae) [PDF]
Brazilian Journal of Biology, 2003 Starch gel electrophoresis with L-leucyl-beta-naphthylamide as substrate revealed five aminopeptidases in extracts of Polistes versicolor. These enzymes are presumably products of five structural gene loci.
