ABSTRACT The sterile insect technique (SIT), traditionally reliant on gamma irradiation, has been an effective strategy for controlling Bactrocera dorsalis. However, strict regulations governing gamma radiation sources and the limited research on the responses of B. dorsalis to X‐ray irradiation have hindered the further development of SIT.

A Structural Study on the Specificity of F1 Protease [PDF]
Specificity studies of a thermostable alkaline serine protease F1 with its substrates were carried out through computational docking method. Structures of a series of synthetic peptide substrates were docked to the active site of the homology modelled

Peptidases compartmentalized to the Ascaris suum intestinal lumen and apical intestinal membrane [PDF]
The nematode intestine is a tissue of interest for developing new methods of therapy and control of parasitic nematodes. However, biological details of intestinal cell functions remain obscure, as do the proteins and molecular functions located on the ...

Role of genetic polymorphisms in tumour angiogenesis [PDF]
Angiogenesis plays a crucial role in the development, growth and spread of solid tumours. Pro- and anti-angiogenic factors are abnormally expressed in tumours, influencing tumour angiogenesis, growth and progression.

Genome and secretome analyses provide insights into keratin decomposition by novel proteases from the non-pathogenic fungus Onygena corvina [PDF]
Poultry processing plants and slaughterhouses produce huge quantities of feathers and hair/bristle waste annually. These keratinaceous wastes are highly resistant to degradation.

Factor Xa subsite mapping by proteome-derived peptide libraries improved using WebPICS, a resource for proteomic identification of cleavage sites [PDF]
Proteomic identification of protease cleavage site specificity (PICS) is a recent proteomic approach for the easy mapping of protease subsite preferences that determines both the prime- and non-prime side specificity concurrently.
