Carbohydrate-controlled Serine Protease Inhibitor (Serpin) Production in Bifidobacterium Longum Subsp. Longum [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2020
Abstract The Serine Protease Inhibitor (serpin) protein has been suggested to play a key role in the interaction of bifidobacteria with the host. By inhibiting intestinal serine proteases, it might allow bifidobacteria to reside in specific gut niches. In inflammatory diseases where serine proteases contribute to the innate defense mechanism of
