Investigation of a Serine Protease Inhibitor Active in the Infectious Stage of the Human Liver Fluke Opisthorchis viverrini

open access: yesPathogens
Serine protease inhibitors (serpins) participate in the regulation of inflammation, blood coagulation, and complement activation in humans. This research aimed to identify and characterize such inhibitors of the human liver fluke Opisthorchis viverrini ...

The regions of the sequence most exposed to the solvent within the amyloidogenic state of a protein initiate the aggregation process. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Formation of misfolded aggregates is an essential part of what proteins can do. The process of protein aggregation is central to many human diseases and any aggregating event needs to be prevented within a cell and in protein design.

Phosphatidic acid mediates the targeting of tBid to induce lysosomal membrane permeabilization and apoptosis

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2012
Upon apoptotic stimuli, lysosomal proteases, including cathepsins and chymotrypsin, are released into cytosol due to lysosomal membrane permeabilization (LMP), where they trigger apoptosis via the lysosomal-mitochondrial pathway of apoptosis. Herein, the

Autoactivation of Mouse Trypsinogens Is Regulated by Chymotrypsin C via Cleavage of the Autolysis Loop*

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2013
Background: Hereditary pancreatitis-associated mutations alter regulation of trypsinogen activation by chymotrypsin C. Results: Activation of mouse trypsinogens T8 and T9 is inhibited by chymotrypsin C-mediated cleavage of the autolysis loop. Conclusion:
