Proteolytic remodelling of the extracellular matrix by pericytes
The FEBS Journal, Volume 293, Issue 13, Page 3899-3953, July 2026.Pericytes are specialised perivascular cells intimately connected with endothelial cells and essential for the maintenance of vascular beds. They contribute to the formation and remodelling of the extracellular matrix by actively secreting proteases and protease inhibitors.

Racemisation of Amino Acids: From Synthetic Challenge to Biological Significance
ChemBioChem, Volume 27, Issue 11, 15 June 2026.Racemisation, once considered an undesirable synthetic side reaction, also occurs naturally in amino acids and influences biological processes. Evidence links stereochemical conversion to ageing, protein turnover, and cellular development. This review examines mechanisms, control strategies in synthesis, applications and implications in physiology ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.Despite their evolutionary relatedness to malaria parasites that infect humans, wildlife Plasmodium—particularly those that infect birds and lizards—are understudied, leaving their vast genetic diversity to be explored. By assembling parasite transcriptomes from Plasmodium‐infected lizard blood, we provide the first evidence that lizard‐infective ...

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.ProteAX‐assisted hydrolysis of cricket (Acheta domesticus) protein enhanced its techno‐functional and sensory properties. Optimal hydrolysis at a 1.5% enzyme concentration for 5 h produced a hydrolysate with a 67.71% degree of hydrolysis, 69.51% protein content, high solubility, improved water and oil absorption capacities, low bitterness, and a strong

Integrative Genomics Identifies Candidate Genes Underlying Trypanotolerance in Hybrid African Cattle
Evolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 6, June 2026.ABSTRACT Integrative genomics combines data from different omics sources to link genotypes and phenotypes with the aim of unravelling biological networks and pathways that undergird complex traits, particularly with respect to disease. In this respect, integrative genomics, leveraging population and functional genomic data, can be employed to ...

How to Reduce Wheat Allergens and FODMAPs in Foods: A Critical Review of Patents
Cereal Chemistry, Volume 103, Issue 3, Page 253-266, May/June 2026.ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Supported by scientific evidence, this critical review of the patent literature examined methods to reduce wheat allergens and FODMAPs in foods, which may trigger digestive disorders and other health problems. The following topics were covered: proteolytic enzymes, proteolytic bacteria and yeasts, separation, plant ...

Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract Legumain is a lysosomal cysteine protease that plays a central role in antigen processing for MHC class II presentation. Beyond its canonical proteolytic activity, legumain can also function as a peptide ligase or transpeptidase. This non‐canonical activity becomes particularly relevant under pathophysiological conditions such as cancer and ...

Processing and release of endogenous immunogenic peptide signals
The Plant Journal, Volume 126, Issue 3, May 2026.SUMMARY In both animals and plants, small secreted peptides known as cytokines and phytocytokines mediate local and systemic communication during immune and stress responses. These signaling molecules are typically synthesized as inactive precursors that require proteolytic processing to become active.
