Meat quality, post-mortem proteolytic enzymes, and myosin heavy chain isoforms of different Thai native cattle muscles [PDF]
Objective This study investigated the meat quality characteristics, endogenous proteolytic enzymes, collagen content, and myosin heavy chain (MyHC) isoforms of different muscles of Thai native cattle (TNC).

Thin tail sheep has good adaptation in tropics condition, but they have low meat quality. Quality of thin tail hogget can be improved by selection. Calpastatin (CAST) gene is an indigenous inhibitor of calpain that involved in regulation of protein turn ...

Calpain‐calpastatin and fusion [PDF]
Rat erythrocytes fuse when treated with the membrane mobility agent, 2‐(2‐methoxyethoxy)ethyl‐cis‐8‐(2‐octylcyclopropyl) octanoate (A2C) and Ca2+, whereas human cells do not. Membrane proteolysis promoted by calpain is required for rat cell fusion [(1986) Eur. J. Biochem., in press].

Autogenous proteolytic enzymes of the calpain family are implicated in myofibrillar protein degradation. As a result, the μ-calpain gene and its specific inhibitor, calpastatin, have been repeatedly investigated for their association with meat quality ...

Excessive intracellular calcium levels induce calpain activation, thereby triggering the cell death cascade. Several lines of evidence have demonstrated the neuroprotective role of the overexpression of calpain inhibitor, calpastatin.

The role of proteinase enzymes in the process of conversion of muscle to meat [PDF]
Post mortem meat tenderization is a complex mechanism and unfortunately it has not been fully identified scientifically. It is known that endogenous proteinases have an important role in this mechanism.

Calpain system protein expression in carcinomas of the pancreas, bile duct and ampulla
Background Pancreatic cancer, including cancer of the ampulla of Vater and bile duct, is very aggressive and has a poor five year survival rate; improved methods of patient stratification are required.

Clinical severity of β-thalassaemia/Hb E disease is associated with differential activities of the calpain-calpastatin proteolytic system. [PDF]
Earlier observations in the literature suggest that proteolytic degradation of excess unmatched α-globin chains reduces their accumulation and precipitation in β-thalassaemia erythroid precursor cells and have linked this proteolytic degradation to the ...

The effect of calpastatin gene on meat quality traits in Turkish sheep breeds [PDF]
This research aimed to examine the effects of haplotype groups observed in three different loci on the Calpastatin gene on ultrasonographic MLD measurements and seasonal live weight in five different types of sheep (GBK, HM, K, KM, and R).
