Cysteine endopeptidase activity in sprouting potato tubers. [PDF]
Agricultural and Biological Chemistry, 1985 The crude fraction extracted at pH 6.0 from sprouting potato tubers (pH 6.0 fraction) hydrolyzed casein and BAN A at pH 6.0. This pH 6.0 fraction contained not only caseinase activity but also gelatinase activity, detected by active staining of PAGE-gel with gelatin, as endopeptidases, and both activities increased during sprouting of tubers.

Identification and Characterization of a Rice Cysteine Endopeptidase that Digests Glutelin [PDF]
European Journal of Biochemistry, 1996 Little or no endopeptidase activity was detected in extracts from storage organs of dark‐grown rice seeds until day 6 or post‐imbibition, and the activity expressed per seed increased notably after day 9, reached a maximum on day 18, then decreased.

A Boophilus microplus vitellin-degrading cysteine endopeptidase [PDF]
Parasitology, 2003 Here we describe the purification and characterization of a vitellin (VT) degrading cysteine endopeptidase (VTDCE) from eggs of the hard tick Boophilus microplus. A homogeneous enzyme preparation was obtained by chromatographic fractionation on ion-exchange and gel filtration columns and an autolysis step.

The Structure and Organization of Two Cysteine Endopeptidase Genes from Rice [PDF]
Plant and Cell Physiology, 1999 REP-1 is a major cysteine endopeptidase that digests seed storage glutelin of rice. A cDNA clone (pRP60) for REP-1 and a cDNA clone (pRP80) for a related enzyme were previously isolated. The expression of both mRNAs is regulated by gibberellin. In this study, we revealed the structure and organization of Rep1 and RepA, genes corresponding to pRP60 and ...
