Association of tubal factor infertility with elevated antibodies to Chlamydia trachomatis caseinolytic protease P. [PDF]
The objective of the study was to assess antibodies against Chlamydia trachomatis heat shock proteins (HSP) in patients with tubal factor infertility (TFI), infertility controls (IFC), and fertile controls (FC). HSPs assist organisms in surviving caustic environments such as heat.Twenty-one TFI, 15 IFC, and 29 FC patients were enrolled after ...

The structure of caseinolytic protease subunit ClpP2 reveals a functional model of the caseinolytic protease system from Chlamydia trachomatis. [PDF]
Chlamydia trachomatis (ct) is the most reported bacterial sexually transmitted infection worldwide and the leading cause of preventable blindness. Caseinolytic proteases (ClpP) from pathogenic bacteria are attractive antibiotic targets, particularly for bacterial species that form persister colonies with phenotypic resistance against common antibiotics.

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

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