The hyaluronan-binding serine protease from human plasma cleaves HMW and LMW kininogen and releases bradykinin [PDF]

, 2002
The influence of the hyaluronanbinding protease (PHBSP), a plasma enzyme with FVII- and pro-urokinase-activating potency, on components of the contact phase (kallikrein/kinin) system was investigated.

Cloning and characterisation of a maize carotenoid cleavage dioxygenase (ZmCCD1) and its involvement in the biosynthesis of apocarotenoids with various roles in mutualistic and parasitic interactions [PDF]

, 2008
Colonisation of maize roots by arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi leads to the accumulation of apocarotenoids (cyclohexenone and mycorradicin derivatives).

PCSK9-mediated degradation of the LDL receptor generates a 17 kDa C-terminal LDL receptor fragment

Journal of Lipid Research, 2013
Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) binds to the LDL receptor (LDLR) at the cell surface and reroutes the internalized LDLR to intracellular degradation.

Truncated Chicken Interleukin-1β with Increased Biologic Activity [PDF]

, 2003
Chicken interleukin-1β (ChIL-1β) is synthesized as a precursor molecule that unlike its mammalian counterpart, lacks a typical caspase-1 cleavage site. Therefore, it was unclear if proteolytic cleavage of ChIL-1β can occur and if cleavage might modulate ...

Proteolysis of insulin-like growth factor binding proteins (IGFBPs) by calpain [PDF]

, 2005
Calpains are non-lysosomal, Ca2+-dependent cysteine proteases, which are ubiquitously distributed across cell types and vertebrate species. The rules that govern calpain specificity have not yet been determined.
