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 ...

Vacuolar processing enzymes in the plant life cycle.

New Phytologist, 2020
Vacuolar processing enzyme (VPE) is a cysteine-type endopeptidase that has a substrate specificity for asparagine or aspartic acid residues and cleaves peptide bonds at their carboxyl-terminal side.

Positional scanning and computational modeling reveal determinants of legumain transpeptidase activity

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.

Safety evaluation of the food enzyme containing aspergillopepsin I and carboxypeptidase C activities from the non‐genetically modified Aspergillus sp. strain ACP 112–311

EFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract The food enzyme with aspergillopepsin I (EC 3.4.23.18) and carboxypeptidase C (EC 3.4.16.5) activities is produced with the non‐genetically modified Aspergillus sp. strain ACP 112–311 by Shin Nihon Chemical Co., Ltd. The food enzyme was considered free from viable cells of the production organism.

Genome and Single‐Cell Transcriptome Reveal the Evolution of Holoparasitic Plants: A Case Study of Cistanche deserticola

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 4, Page 2226-2240, April 2026.
ABSTRACT The Orobanchaceae family, the largest group of parasitic plants, spans a complete spectrum from autotrophic to holoparasitic species. As a typical endangered holoparasitic species within this family, Cistanche deserticola is a parasitic plant that is widely harvested for traditional medicine in desertic regions, and of growing importance as a ...

Plant subtilases as key initiators of peptide ligand‐receptor signaling

The Plant Journal, Volume 126, Issue 1, April 2026.
SUMMARY Peptide ligand‐receptor signaling plays a crucial role in regulating diverse biological processes in plants. Over the past three decades, numerous peptide ligands and their corresponding receptors have been identified, and our understanding of their downstream signaling pathways and biological functions has gradually advanced.
