Clinical severity of β-thalassaemia/Hb E disease is associated with differential activities of the calpain-calpastatin proteolytic system. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 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 ...

Connecting Heat Tolerance and Tenderness in Bos indicus Influenced Cattle
Animals, 2022 Bos indicus cattle are widely utilized in tropical and subtropical climates. Their heat tolerance and parasite resistance are integral for beef production in these regions; however, a reputation for excitable temperaments, slower growth, and variation in

Polymorphism of the ovine calpastatin gene
Molecular and Cellular Probes, 2007 Calpastatin is a specific inhibitor of calpains and has been implicated in the regulation of beef tenderization. Variation in the ovine calpastatin gene (CAST) was investigated by amplification of a fragment containing the entire exon 6 using polymerase chain reaction (PCR), followed by single-strand conformational polymorphism (PCR-SSCP) analysis and ...

Binding of calpain fragments to calpastatin
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1991 Their cDNA-derived amino acid sequences predict that the 80-kDa subunits of the micromolar and millimolar Ca(2+)-requiring forms of the Ca(2+)-dependent proteinase (mu- and m-calpain, respectively) each consist of four domains and that the 28-kDa subunit common to both mu- and m-calpain consists of two domains.

Molecular analysis of ovine calpastatin (CAST) and myostatin (MSTN) genes in Synthetic Population Bulgarian Milk sheep using PCR-RFLP [PDF]
Journal of BioScience and Biotechnology, 2015 The aim of present study was to investigate the polymorphism of calpastatin and myostatin genes in sheep from Synthetic Population Bulgarian Milk (SPBM) breed because they are considered as candidate genes for meat and growth traits.
