Study on endogenous protease and protein degradation of dry-salted Decapterus maruadsi

CyTA - Journal of Food, 2018
Extensive proteolysis and formation of flavor substances occur during the processing of dry-salted fish due to the action of endogenous proteases. This study analyzed the evolution of the endogenous proteases and the relationship between endogenous ...

Metallo-aminopeptidase inhibitors

Biochimie, 2010
Aminopeptidases are enzymes that selectively hydrolyze an amino acid residue from the N-terminus of proteins and peptides. They are important for the proper functioning of prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, but very often are central players in the devastating human diseases like cancer, malaria and diabetes.

Divalent Metal Binding Properties of the Methionyl Aminopeptidase from \u3cem\u3eEscherichia coli\u3c/em\u3e [PDF]

, 2000
The metal-binding properties of the methionyl aminopeptidase from Escherichia coli (MetAP) were investigated. Measurements of catalytic activity as a function of added Co(II) and Fe(II) revealed that maximal enzymatic activity is observed after the ...

Positioning of Melflufen in Heavily Pretreated RRMM Patients: Real‐World Evidence in a Rapidly Evolving Therapeutic Landscape

European Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Modern therapies have clearly marked the history of multiple myeloma (MM), leading to undisputed advantages in terms of sustained responses and prolonged survival, while progressively improving patients' quality of life. Nonetheless, disease recurrence and resistance to available therapies underscore the importance of identifying additional ...

N-Benzyl Residues as the P1′ Substituents in Phosphorus-Containing Extended Transition State Analog Inhibitors of Metalloaminopeptidases

Molecules, 2020
Peptidyl enzyme inhibitors containing an internal aminomethylphosphinic bond system (P(O)(OH)-CH2-NH) can be termed extended transition state analogs by similarity to the corresponding phosphonamidates (P(O)(OH)-NH).

N-Terminal Acetylation of Cellular Proteins Creates Specific Degradation Signals [PDF]

, 2010
The retained N-terminal methionine (Met) residue of a nascent protein is often N-terminally acetylated (Nt-acetylated). Removal of N-terminal Met by Met-aminopeptidases frequently leads to Nt-acetylation of the resulting N-terminal alanine (Ala), valine (

The impact of accumulating immune adaptation in circulating strains of HIV‐1

HIV Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Mutations in human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV‐1) enable the virus to evade recognition and killing by human leucocyte antigen (HLA)‐restricted T cells. These viral adaptations are specific to the HLA type of individuals and are therefore evident as HLA allele‐HIV sequence associations at the population level. Most studies of

Substrate specificity and structural investigation into PepO and PepW : two peptidases from Lactobacillus rhamnosus : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Biochemistry at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]

, 2005
The proteolytic systems of lactic acid bacteria have important roles in the maturation and flavour development of cheese. Lactic acid bacteria pepetidases contribute to the taste of cheese through the production of low-molecular weight peptides and free ...
