Geoderma, 2023 Aminopeptidases catalyze the hydrolysis of peptides into constituent amino acids and are therefore a key step in nitrogen (N) depolymerization and downstream mineralization. Differences in carbon (C):N as well as sulfur (S) content of amino acids present

Using microbial metalo-aminopeptidases as targets in human infectious diseases
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 ...

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.

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.

Hypertension, 2008 Several decades of investigation have provided unequivocal support for the existence of an intrinsic brain renin-angiotensin (Ang) system (RAS) and its involvement in the control of cardiovascular functions.1,2 Essential components of the RAS, ie, renin, angiotensinogen, Ang-converting enzyme, Ang-converting enzyme 2, type 1 Ang II, and type 2 Ang II ...

Arginine specific aminopeptidase from Lactobacillus brevis
Brazilian Archives of Biology and Technology, 2010 The proteolytic system of lactic acid bacteria contribute to the development of flavor during the ripening of cheese through the generation of short peptides and free amino acids, which directly or indirectly act as flavor precursors.

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2023 We have previously demonstrated that deletion of an intracellular leucine aminopeptidase results in attenuated virulence of S. aureus. Herein we explore the role of 10 other aminopeptidases in S. aureus pathogenesis. Using a human blood survival assay we

Peptidolytic enzymes in different larval stadium of housefly Musca domestica
Veterinární Medicína, 2006 Four classes of peptidolytic enzymes were described in insects. Many authors have found predominant activity belonging to trypsin-like and chymotrypsin-like activity.

Characterization of aminopeptidase encoding gene anp-1 and its association with development in Caenorhabditis elegans [PDF]
PeerJ, 2019 Background Aminopeptidases play important roles in various biological processes in nematodes including growth, development and reproduction. Although the aminopeptidases have been shown to regulate reproduction in Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans), the
