The journey of cardosin A in young Arabidopsis seedlings leads to evidence of a Golgi-independent pathway to the protein storage vacuole [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023 The aspartic proteinase cardosin A is a vacuolar enzyme found to accumulate in protein storage and lytic vacuoles in the flowers and protein bodies in the seeds of the native plant cardoon.

N-Linked Glycosylation Modulates Golgi-Independent Vacuolar Sorting Mediated by the Plant Specific Insert [PDF]
Plants, 2019 In plant cells, the conventional route to the vacuole involves the endoplasmic reticulum, the Golgi and the prevacuolar compartment. However, over the years, unconventional sorting to the vacuole, bypassing the Golgi, has been described, which is the ...

Tobacco BY2 cells expressing recombinant cardosin B as an alternative for production of active milk clotting enzymes [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2021 Cynara cardunculus L. or cardoon is a plant that is used as a source of milk clotting enzymes during traditional cheese manufacturing. This clotting activity is due to aspartic proteases (APs) found in the cardoon flower, named cyprosins and cardosins ...

Cardosin A endocytosis mediated by integrin leads to lysosome leakage and apoptosis of epithelial cells [PDF]
Proteins: Structure, Function and Bioinformatics, 2019 AbstractCardosin A is an aspartic protease present in large amount in the pistils of cardoon flowers. This protease is known to contain an ‐Arg‐Gly‐Asp‐ (RGD) motif located on the molecular surface. In this study, we found that isolated recombinant cardosin A attached to human epithelial cells A549, mediated by the binding of its RGD motif to cell ...
