Homology modeling and functional annotation of bubaline pregnancy associated glycoprotein 2

Journal of Animal Science and Biotechnology, 2012
Background Pregnancy associated glycoproteins form a diverse family of glycoproteins that are variably expressed at different stages of gestation. They are probably involved in immunosuppression of the dam against the feto-maternal placentome.

Crystal structures of trypanosoma brucei oligopeptidase B broaden the paradigm of catalytic regulation in prolyl oligopeptidase family enzymes [PDF]

, 2013
Oligopeptidase B cleaves after basic amino acids in peptides up to 30 residues. As a virulence factor in bacteria and trypanosomatid pathogens that is absent in higher eukaryotes, this is a promising drug target.

Modulation of posterior intestinal mucosal proteome in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) after Yersinia ruckeri infection

Veterinary Research, 2019
Yersinia ruckeri is the causative agent of enteric redmouth disease in salmonids. In fish, the intestine represents an important site of nutrient uptake, host–pathogen interactions, and defense.

Comprehensive bioinformatics-based annotation and functional characterization of bovine chymosin protein revealed novel biological insights

Food Chemistry: Molecular Sciences
Chymosin, an aspartic protease present in the stomachs of young ruminants like cows (bovine), causes milk coagulation and cheese production through the breakdown of κ-casein peptide bonds at the Met105-Phe106 site. Bovine chymosin is first synthesized as

Extracellular aspartic protease SAP2 of Candida albicans yeast cleaves human kininogens and releases proinflammatory peptides, Met-Lys-bradykinin and des-Arg(9)-Met-Lys-bradykinin [PDF]

, 2012
Bradykinin-related peptides, universal mediators of inflammation collectively referred to as the kinins, are often produced in excessive amounts during microbial infections.

Post-proline endopeptidase, further characterization of the enzyme from pig kidneys

, 1984
A post-proline endopeptidase (EC 3.4.21.26) was isolated from pig kidneys using a modified method described earlier. The enzyme was further purified by ion exchange chromatography on DEAE-Sephacel.

Changes in the endopeptidase pattern of wheat leaves during senescence [PDF]

, 1985
Peptide hydrolase activities present in young and senescing flag leaves of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) were fractionated on DEAE-cellulose columns. Part of the endopeptidase activity was not bound to DEAE-cellulose at pH 7.5 (peak I) and had a broad pH ...
