Transcriptome dynamics in the asexual cycle of the chordate Botryllus schlosseri [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background: We performed an analysis of the transcriptome during the blastogenesis of the chordate Botryllus schlosseri, focusing in particular on genes involved in cell death by apoptosis. The tunicate B.

Modulation of posterior intestinal mucosal proteome in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) after Yersinia ruckeri infection

open access: yesVeterinary Research, 2019
Yersinia ruckeri is the causative agent of enteric redmouth disease in salmonids. In fish, the intestine represents an important site of nutrient uptake, host–pathogen interactions, and defense.

Proteases of haematophagous arthropod vectors are involved in blood-feeding, yolk formation and immunity : a review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Ticks, triatomines, mosquitoes and sand flies comprise a large number of haematophagous arthropods considered vectors of human infectious diseases. While consuming blood to obtain the nutrients necessary to carry on life functions, these insects can ...

Proteases Shape the Chlamydomonas Secretome: Comparison to Classical Neuropeptide Processing Machinery

open access: yesProteomes, 2018
The recent identification of catalytically active peptidylglycine α-amidating monooxygenase (PAM) in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, a unicellular green alga, suggested the presence of a PAM-like gene and peptidergic signaling in the last eukaryotic ...

Hormonal Regulation of Expression of Two Cysteine Endopeptidase Genes in Rice Seedlings [PDF]

open access: yesPlant and Cell Physiology, 1997
Two cDNA probes (pRP60 and pRP80) were used to examine the hormonal regulation of expression of two cysteine endopeptidase genes in germinated whole seeds and de-embryonated seeds of rice. The pRP60 protein is a major rice cysteine endopeptidase named REP-1 that digests rice glutelin, the main seed storage protein.

Identification of a novel 82 kDa proMMP-9 species associated with the surface of leukaemic cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
MMP-9 (matrix metalloproteinase 9) plays a critical role in tumour progression. Although the biochemical properties of the secreted form of proMMP-9 are well characterized, little is known about the function and activity of cell surface-associated proMMP-

Molecular aspects and comparative genomics of bacteriophage endolysins [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Phages are recognized as the most abundant and diverse entities on the planet. Their diversity is predominantly determined by their dynamic adaptation capacities, when confronted with different selective pressures in an endless cycle of co-evolution with

Substrate specificity and structural investigation into PepO and PepW : two peptidases from Lactobacillus rhamnosus : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Biochemistry at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The proteolytic systems of lactic acid bacteria have important roles in the maturation and flavour development of cheese. Lactic acid bacteria pepetidases contribute to the taste of cheese through the production of low-molecular weight peptides and free ...
