Proteomic Analysis of the Midgut Contents of Silkworm in the Pupal Stage

Insects, 2023
The silkworm Bombyx mori, a lepidopteran insect, possesses an 8–10-day pupal stage, during which significant changes occur in the midgut, where it first condenses into the yellow body, and then undergoes decomposition.

Site-Selective Incorporation of a Functional Group into Lys175 in the Vicinity of the Active Site of Chymotrypsin by Using Peptidyl α-Aminoalkylphosphonate Diphenyl Ester-Derivatives

Molecules, 2023
We previously reported that Lys175 in the region of the active site of chymotrypsin (Csin) could be site-selectively modified by using an N-hydroxy succinimide (NHS) ester of the peptidyl derivative containing 1-amino-2-ethylphenylphosphonate diphenyl ...

Protease inhibitors of Cajanus conferring resistance to pod borer of pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan L. Millsp.)

Electronic Journal of Plant Breeding, 2017
Pigeonpea is susceptible to pod borer damage with resistance lacking in its primary gene pool. Many Cajanus species harbor high levels of resistance. Host plant resistance can play an important role in minimizing the extent of losses due to insects and ...

Synthesis and Evaluation of Macrocyclic Transition State Analogue Inhibitors for α-Chymotrypsin

, 2016
Lactams 1 and 2 are readily formed from acyclic precursors in the presence of trypsin and chymotrypsin, respectively, identifying the macrocyclic ring system as a potential motif for constrained transition state analogue inhibitors of the serine ...

Safety evaluation of the food enzyme chymotrypsin from the genetically modified Bacillus licheniformis strain NZYM‐RH

EFSA Journal
The food enzyme chymotrypsin (EC 3.4.21.1) is produced with the genetically modified microorganism Bacillus licheniformis strain NZYM‐RH by Novozymes A/S. The genetic modifications do not give rise to safety concerns.

PSMA8‐Containing 20S Proteasome Regulates Spermiogenesis and Male Fertility

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
PSMA8 assembles s20S proteasome that degrades specific substrates in elongating spermatids. Degradation of s20S‐substrates activates translation of FXR1‐target mRNAs, which are essential for mitochondrial sheath formation and sperm morphogenesis.

Chymotrypsin- and trypsin-like activities secreted by the multidrug-resistant yeasts forming the Candida haemulonii complex

, 2019
: Candida haemulonii complex (C. haemulonii, C. haemulonii var. vulnera and C. duobushaemulonii) consists of emergent multidrug-resistant pathogens that cause bloodstream and deep-seated infections. However, little is known about their virulence factors.
