Hinokiflavone Attenuates the Virulence of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus by Targeting Caseinolytic Protease P. [PDF]

Antimicrob Agents Chemother, 2022
Drug-resistant bacteria was the third leading cause of death worldwide in 2019, which sounds like a cautionary note for global public health. Therefore, developing novel strategies to combat Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infections is the need of the hour.

Catalytic Properties of Caseinolytic Protease Subunit of Plasmodium knowlesi and Its Inhibition by a Member of δ-Lactone, Hyptolide [PDF]

Molecules, 2022
The caseinolytic protease (Clp) system plays an essential role in the protein homeostasis of the malaria parasite, particularly at the stage of apicoplast development. The inhibition of this protein is known to have a lethal effect on the parasite and is

Mutations in ClpC1 or ClpX subunit of caseinolytic protease confer resistance to ilamycins in mycobacteria [PDF]

Communications Biology
The mycobacterial caseinolytic protease (Clp) system has been recognized as a promising therapeutic target. In this study, we identify two novel ilamycin analogs, ilamycin E (ILE) and ilamycin F (ILF), both targeting the ClpC1 component of the ClpC1P1P2 ...

An antibiotic, heavy metal resistant and halotolerant Bacillus cereus SIU1 and its thermoalkaline protease [PDF]

Microbial Cell Factories, 2010
Background Many workers have reported halotolerant bacteria from saline conditions capable of protease production. However, antibiotic resistance and heavy metal tolerance pattern of such organisms is not documented very well.

Structural and mechanistic insights into caseinolytic protease inhibition for antimicrobial development against Pseudomonas plecoglossicida. [PDF]

PLoS Pathogens
The caseinolytic protease (ClpP) is an emerging antibacterial target. Pseudomonas plecoglossicida (Pp), a pathogen causing visceral white spot disease in Larimichthys crocea, encodes two ClpP paralogs, PpClpP1 and PpClpP2.

Acyldepsipeptide Probes Facilitate Specific Detection of Caseinolytic Protease P Independent of Its Oligomeric and Activity State. [PDF]

Chembiochem, 2020
AbstractCaseinolytic protease P (ClpP) is a tetradecameric peptidase that assembles with chaperones such as ClpX to gain proteolytic activity. Acyldepsipeptides (ADEPs) are small‐molecule mimics of ClpX that bind into hydrophobic pockets on the apical site of the complex, thereby activating ClpP.

Production, Purification, and Biochemical Characterization of a Novel ATP-Dependent Caseinolytic Protease from the Marine Bacterium Cobetia amphilecti KMM 296 [PDF]

Microorganisms
A novel caseinolytic protease (ClpP) of the S14 family from Cobetia amphilecti KMM 296 (CamClpP), comprising 206 amino acids, with a calculated molecular weight of 22.66 kDa and a pI of 4.88, was expressed in Escherichia coli cells to verify the ...

Sclerotiamide: The First Non-Peptide-Based Natural Product Activator of Bacterial Caseinolytic Protease P. [PDF]

J Nat Prod, 2016
Caseinolytic protease P (ClpP) maintains essential roles in bacterial homeostasis. As such, both the inhibition and activation of this enzyme result in bactericidal activity, making ClpP a promising target for antibacterial drug development. Herein, we report the results of a fluorescence-based screen of ∼450 structurally diverse fungal and bacterial ...

Bortezomib Warhead-Switch Confers Dual Activity against Mycobacterial Caseinolytic Protease and Proteasome and Selectivity against Human Proteasome [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017
Mycobacteria harbor two main degradative proteolytic machineries, the caseinolytic protease ClpP1P2 and a proteasome. We recently showed that Bortezomib inhibits ClpP1P2 and exhibits whole cell activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
