The involvement of calpastatin in myoblast fusion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Myoblast fusion is a dynamic event that can be recreated in vitro using tissue culture. Portions of cDNA encoding inhibitory and non-inhibitory domains of ovine calpastatin were expressed in murine C2C12 myoblasts as fusion proteins with enhanced green ...

Effects of age, castration and gestation on calpains and calpastatin in sheep and rabbit skeletal muscle [PDF]

open access: yes
Objectives of this study were to examine effects of age, castration and gestation on actvities of calpains and calpastatin in skeletal muscle. Also, the regulation of calpains and calpastatin at the molecular level was investigated.

Ostrich calpastatin purification and partial characterization of the liver inhibitor

open access: yes, 2000
The isolation and purification of calpastatin from ostrich liver is presented, along with its physicochemical and kinetic properties. By using extraction from liver, ion-exchange chromatography on DEAE-Toyopearl, heating to 90 °C for 10 min and ...

Characterization of the skeletal muscle calpain/calpastatin system in growth models in swine and cattle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The overall objective of the work in this dissertation was to characterize -calpain, m-calpain, and calpastatin activities in order to learn more about the system in the live animal as well as its potential effects on postmortem proteolysis.

Functional polymorphisms : bovine calpastatin gene and meat tenderness [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Calpastatin is widely known as an endogenous specific inhibitor to the ubiquitously expressed calpain an enzyme responsible for proteolysis of myofibrillar proteins during post-mortem degradation of muscle.

Characterization of Tenderness-Related SNPs in Culled Holstein Cows: CAPN1 and CAST Genotypes Show Neutral Effects on Postmortem Meat Quality Parameters—A Pilot Study

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Meat from cull dairy cows is often used for human consumption; it is well known that tenderness adds value to the market, and dairy cattle meat is usually undervalued.

Genotypic frequency of calpastatin gene [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
-The effect of Calpains gene polymorphism on the analyzed meat quality traits are discussed in detail in another paper. Calpastatin is a natural occurring inhibitor of calpains and consequently the balance of calpain-calpastatin activity in muscles is ...
